This weekend, Southwater CC hosted its annual awards dinner and disco at the Crowne Plaza, Felbridge. The evening promised to be a busy one, as the club enjoyed an unprecedented successful season.

All three Southwater league teams achieved promotion, the midweek cup team were champions of the Sussex Slam and the women's team reached finals day. The Sunday XI were successful in their own inimitable way, playing a full season of enjoyable gamesunder the stewardship of Sam Cooper. The mix of junior players, seasoned veterans, enthusiastic regulars, and occasional stellar "guests" from the league teams was a winning formula, if using a very loose definition of "winning".

The 1st XI finished top of Sussex Cricket League Division 5 Central. Captain, Alex Harding was second on the division's list of wicket takers, and Sean Overton and Johnny Mills appeared in the top ten run scorers. 'Keeper, Matt Shuttlewood topped the catches/stumpings list, and in an injury restricted season, Nick Baker provided a highlight with his innings of 183 not out.
