H&D 1s challenging season ended with them finishing just above the bottom 3. Meaningless but had the structure stayed the same for 2025 then we would have stayed up.
TJ's H&D 2s however finished second which would have meant promotion and return to County 4
With the restructure could it be higher !!!
A solitary win and 3 defeats for Matt Young's side during August. The highlight of a poor batting month ~ Matt Young's match winning 127* vs Old Basing. Onaid Iqbal took 4-45 with the ball.
