Club News

hammo1977 — Sat, 01 Nov 2008 11:50:01 CDT

Welcome to the build up to the 2009 season

Created and launched on the 15th October, welcome to our official website. On this site you will able to access results, fixtures, match reports*, training schedules for your age group, and of course catch up on club news, events and activities.

1st XI Promoted...

The 2007 season saw our 1st XI finally promoted to Hampshire cricket league division 2 (south west) after a couple of years of decent efforts and the building of a young squad, with a mixture of experience as well. Under the leadership of skipper Paul Langford expectations are high of the possibilities of further promotion in the near future.
The 2nd XI are still waiting to hear if they will be promoted. They finished one place below the automatic promotion positions, but what with the normal annual re-changing of the league format there's a possibility of promotion, fingers crossed...

New for 2009 Season

Fantasy League Cricket 2009

Soon all members will be sent entry forms for the fantasy cricket. Rules and regulations will be well explained. With work still to be done to finalise costs, prizes and club benefits, more news will follow shortly when available.
Please contact chrishammond77@hotmail.co.uk for more details.

Stone cup Entry for 2009

Due to our promotion last season we are now invited to enter the Stone Cup competition. These matches I believe will be played on Monday nights, and if like last season will involve a round robin stage before knockout stages. We will also be re-entering the forest cup 20/20 league. Just for information purposes, the cup was not won last year due to fixture congestion. A new format is being discussed at the New Forest AGM early next year.

New 2ND XI Skipper

For the past 3 seasons Alan Varley has been captain of the 2nd XI. In those 3 seasons the team have endured mixed success, always finishing in the top half of the table and always putting up a fight regardless of the situation. At times Alan hasn't had the strongest side to pick from, which makes the job virtually impossible at times, even having to employ players in the under 11's at times. With this in mind, and the arrival of another sibling, Alan decided to hand the reigns over. We thank Alan for all the hard work he has done - he has left a strong group of players to work with, which is really encouraging for the future of the club.
At the AGM at the back end of last season the new skipper was chosen, Iestyn Lewis. The 26 year old all rounder, and former 1st team vice captain will hopefully build a good bond with 1st team skipper to give a good balance to both sides for the up and coming season. Good luck Iestyn.

Welcome to Milford on sea CC

Home Ground - 'The Rec', Barnes Lane, Milford on Sea, Lymington, Hampshire, UK.

Milford on sea is a quiet village on the south coast of England. Not only does Milford on sea boast stunning views of the Needles of the Isle of Wight, it also is part of the virtually untouched area called The New Forest.
Milford on sea can be found between the two busy cities of Southampton in Hampshire and Bournemouth in Dorset. With the lovely sandy beaches, and the active nightlife in Bournemouth only 30 minutes drive away we welcome touring sides in the late part of the summer.
We believe Milford on sea cricket club has been playing cricket for over 30 years, but with no official history it could be longer. The club joined the Hampshire League only 5 years ago, when the previously called Forest League merged with the Hampshire League.

Milford on sea cc Senior Teams

The modern day Milford on sea cricket club runs 2 saturday XI competing in The Hampshire Cricket League. The 1st XI achieved promotion to south west div2 in 2008, and the 2nd XI play in south west div4. The senior club also compete on sundays in the New Forest 20/20, and enter into the Stone Cup 18 over competition on monday nights. We also welcome friendly fixtures later on in the summer, and have an active over 50's side who play regular mid-week fixtures against similar sides.

Milford on sea cc Colts section

Last year the club were able to boast 4 age groups in the colts section, under 17, under 15, under 13 and under 11's. This year however we will be without an under 15 section, who have moved up to the next age group (under 17's). With the competition from the larger clubs in the area the club has not been able to fill this age group sector, but has moved to fill this void in the future, by starting the under 11's last season.

Milford on sea cc Social/ non-playing members

The new season will see a large push to increase our non-playing membership.
Some of our local community may feel they are not welcome - YOU ARE

Milford on sea 1st XI 195-6 New Milton 3rd XI 187-9 (2008 season)

Milford welcomed fellow promotion challengers New Milton to Barnes Lane on a breezy, overcast yet humid afternoon. After visiting skipper K.Locke correctly called the toss he wasted no time in inviting Milford to bat first on a hard wicket with just a sprinkling of rain on top. Milford’s experimental batting line up, due to a list of 8 1st team players absent, struggled against a good opening bowling attack of D.Toop (12-2-37-1) and D.Crossley (12-2-46-2). Nick Hatfield(32), elevated from the middle order to opener, batted well against some ferocious bounce and with the help of Matt Downding(31) put on a usefull 2nd wicket partnership of 54. Jamie Boynton was introduced at this stage, and probably played his best innings of an incredible season for him with the bat and ball. With a well balanced New Milton attack, featuring the guile of Jim Metcalfe, the pace of Kristian Locke and good back up bowling from Prodomo, Milford had to fight for every run. Jamie Boynton steered his way to an unbeaten 64 with the help of Darren Jones, Johnny Brown and Rod Fry (21not out), who all put on useful partnerships to help reach a satisfying total of 195. With tensions running high, Milford took to the field knowing that a victory in this match would really help their ambitions of playing in the higher leagues. Opening bowlers N.Hatfield (7-33-1) and injured 4th choice skipper C.Hammond (4.4-1-13-0) really struggled on a dead pitch, and it was not until realisation that slow bowling would win the game that Milford really started to dominate. With the experience of Rod Fry (6-16-0), J.Boynton (10-40-2), M.Dowding (8-36-1) and D.Jones (2-18) Milford started to put pressure on the New Milton batsmen by starving them of boundaries, by far the best fielding performance of the season. At one stage, when classy veteran Jim Metcalfe (37) and Prodomo (45) were at the crease together, New Milton looked to have the game in the bag, but credit to Milford they never gave up, and after being 112-3 New Milton slipped well behind the run rate. Darren Jones took a breathtaking caught and bowled to remove the dangerous looking Vibert, and New Milton innings capitulated to 187-9. A great game which neither team deserved to lose and hopefully next season the fixture will be re-played a division higher.

Milford-On-Sea Vs Mudeford IV (2007 season)

On another rain effected Saturday, this was the only game to take place in the league. Thanks to some hard work by the Milford ground staff and in particular Chris Walford the game managed to start at 2.30 with the overs being reduced to 37. Langford’s poor form with the coin toss continued and Milford were put into bat on a damp but by no means unplayable wicket. Early wickets fell with conditions favouring the bowling and at 68 for 4 Milford were in a little bit of trouble but once again Hammond came to the rescue for Milford ably abetted by N. Hatfield. Taking advantage of improving batting conditions and some poor support bowling the pair put on 137 for the fifth wicket. Hammond was the man to go after a powerful but measured innings of 90 off 71 balls. With the score standing at 205 with 6 overs still remaining there was the chance for Milford to pile on the runs and put the game out of sight. The classy Hatfield didn’t disappoint, putting the Mudeford attack to the sword before finally falling for 70. Further big hitting by W. Lewis (17 n.o) and youngster J. Brown (9 n.o) brought the final total to 253 off 37 overs, a magnificent achievement given that many observers thought that 150 would have been a useful total given the conditions. In reply Mudeford had to go for it and scored well off the first 10 overs with the opening bowling partnership of J. Ferrar (5.0.32.0) and J. Brown (5.0.18.0) suffering a little. Skipper Langford then turned to his enforcer B. Torah and when D. Bryan (33) was bowled 7 balls into Torah’s spell, Mudeford’s resistance faded. With Torah and Hammond seemingly having their own competition to see who could take the first five-for, the wickets fell at regular intervals. With a grunt of joy, man-of-the-match Hammond (10.2.1.32.5) took the final wicket in the 32nd over with the visitors reaching a total of 111. Torah (11.3.18.5) ended with his second 5 wicket haul in successive matches and must now be in with a good chance of taking league’s best bowler with a current total of 24 wickets at an average 7.38 a piece.

Milford-On-Sea Vs New Milton III (2007 season)

On the best Saturday of the season Milford welcomed New Milton to their ground. New Milton won the toss and elected to bat. New Milton started well posting 49 for the first wicket but then the wickets started to fall with I. Lewis (11.1.63.5) the catalyst and at 77 for 4 New Milton were on the brink. However, after a shaky start M. Freeman started to find the middle of his bit and proceeded to hit the Milford attack all round the park. Freeman was eventually the last man out but not before he’d hit 8 sixes in a total of 101 and New Milton finished up with a total 213. In reply Milford seemed to be making slow work of it and half way through the innings the required run rate had gone up to exactly 7 an over, but what followed must go down as one of the most exciting run chases ever seen at Milford. Langford proceeded to take apart the New Milton attack and with support from Dowding (21), Gregory (11) and Bond (10 n.o) Milford managed to stay just within striking distance. The match went right down to the wire with 16 runs needed off the last over to secure victory. Langford knocked them off with a ball to spare, finishing unbeaten on 126 and sparking a mini pitch invasion.
