Purchased a GoPro used it yesterday in league game.
Caused a bit of drama with the umpires not sold on the idea but they cant stop me unless there are juniors present then i would need consent.
Here is some highlights before batteries Died.
Need to get expansion pack

The quality is excellent! Is it one of the new ones with the screen on the back? I've got a Hero 3
-
no screen on this one mate.
Its a Gopro Hero4 Black Edition. The silver one has a screen i went for black as i want 120fps for slowmo.
that was recorded in 720p will do 1080p today!
need a battery expansion tho and a 64gb card instead of 32. to get more than an hour in

Very common misconception, you do not need consent to take a photo of somebody in a public place in the UK. They can ask you to not take a photograph/video but they have no legal right to stop you taking a photo. Of course its always best to get consent but you do not legally have to!

I'd check upon your league rules.
Ours have a clear rule that says any junior present at the age of u19 and you need there parents/guardians permission to take photos/videos at the game.
Good footage simmo. Watched it a Facebook earlier. What helmet you wear and how did you attach it??
-
Ah excellent watch Simdog - really enjoyed watching someone elses league standard, ground, fielding etc.
I noticed that the oppo all seemed to be using the same two bats!
I like the left arm spinner, nice flight.
The second batsman looked absolutely clueless against the baldy bowler.
Excellent stuff!
-
Are you going up early Simdog? Looks like you are moving upwards just before the bowler has bowled and not moving up with the bounce/length of the delivery.
-
Really enjoyed that. Best bit: The slip saying f$*^ing hellfire every other ball.
-
If you see a flaw in Simdogs keeping, I prey you weren't watching mine too closely yesterday!!!! :(
I love watching these GoPro matches! Great entertainment and the quality is decent.
-

Given you hadn't kept in a while and some of the bowling was s**t I think you can be excused!
-
Mate - I was knackered last night! My thighs were tired from all that activity down leg side!
Anyway, it's only a matter of time before it's common to record matches. How much did the GoPro set you back Sims?
-
Rumours in the local paper the other day that he would be making a return to Hampshire next season.

Simmo is?? Or wrong thread. Lol

Enjoyed the video. The pitch looks good. And well kept :)

I thought all the batsmen had blindfolds on
-
Simmy, nice one indeed! Wont say the same about appeal though :D
-
Good video!
Good length bowling. I would be trying to get down to the pitch if I were them batters.
-
I'm a camera noob, so maybe someone here can help. I go skiing almost every year, and want to buy a gopro and wear it on a chest strap. Which model due to fps/video quality and all that nonsense that I don't understand would give optimal quality at the best price?
-
Really enjoyed watching that! Please can those umpires look after any game I am batting in! That first lbw the batsman should have walked!
Brilliant work.
Who knew speedo made bats?
Why didn't you have a cow corner to their batsman with one shot??

probs wanted to get game over quicker haha
This isn't really a true reflection on the standard of our league. that batter who snicked off first ball is an outstanding player(has mental issues tho).

The guy miss hitting everything usually bats about 8 i think.
We was bowled out for 73. so i think they was just trying to get the game won.
Also one of our opening bowlers was injured who has the pace.
Bats are torpedo and they are pretty big in our league. Indian Made tho. some good some poor.
Didnt have a Helmet on this was just strapped to my cap using normal head strap.

yes nick good observation ... however I am still sh**t hot so its all good

I used my Hero 3 White for quite a lot of net stuff this year, found the battery lasted about 2 and a half hours and the 32GB card was able to capture everything in 1080p in that time.
Haven't even considered using mine in matches yet
-
Great video mate! Looks like these gopro cricket videos are getting very popular.

Given you dropped catches off my bowling in the Cbf game and ledsham t20 many moons ago I think there is room for improvement. Not that I'm counting [emoji3]

Some more footage from Sundays Game!

Everybody loves a stump cart wheel!
-
lovely video & keep the videos coming!!
i find it very difficult to mount my sony action cam properly onto my batting helmet..
-
Good stuff simmy
-
Good video mate
Bowling looks pretty decent, they scored most of the runs through gully.
Oooo I bet that hurt, haha
-
Few sixes from training!

last raining session so shocking turn out and bowling was poor lol
-
Hadn't realised you had moved to the SYSCL mate. How have you found it?
-
had worst season of my life with the bat! like i hadn't batted before!
loved it mate standard is so much better than what i was playing!
-
Yeah its a good standard. Played Houghton last years, 1 win and 1 loss.
Ian Simon hits it huge when he connects! He only bowled in the 2nd game through injury but seemed to land it on the spot at just enough pace. Tanzeel is a great player!
-
Yeh plenty of talent in our dressing room just shame that some games nobody comes off :(
you guys finished bottom didn't you? lucky there is no relegation.
Hoping we can get into this new top league by end of next season as the top 4 have gone up. its hard to compete with some of the top level clubs the depth is just to good.
-
Yeah Works finished bottom but I haven't been playing this season. The club has turned into something it wasn't a couple of years back so I decided to take a break for a season.
-
you going to start again next year?
-

Sad to hear that. Did you want time out? I'm sure plenty of ydcl sides would have had you play. Us Being one of them.
Also what happened to james ward. Did he move on after one season?
-
James Ward,
Is the skipper at Darfield? if we are on about the same lad
-
Did i spot the Llama in one of those videos?
-
Guys, who do you play for in the SYSCL? I Umpire there so maybe our paths have crossed...hope I havent had you in the office after a game though?
-
With Simmy - that would be a given.
However, you would definitely know if you had been locked in a small office with Simmy!
-
Cant view Simmys currently due to being at work, but discovered this channel where they upload gopro footage from each game recently.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnNNl0xrHOQNrUhuB_kbwPQ (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnNNl0xrHOQNrUhuB_kbwPQ)

I play for Houghton Main pal
-

Different james ward.
This one played for stocksbridge as a junior to 2013 then mill house 2014 and seems to have vanished.

And cakes were present...

Although I wasn't planning on taking a break, I have actually quite enjoyed having a season off although I have missed the general banter and social side of cricket.
I think I will be back next season but haven't really though about who I am going to play for. I know you guys have a very competent keeper already though!
James Ward moved to Oughtibridge and played 4 games batting twice with an average of 0! After that I didn't see his name pop up again on any scorecards.

We have two competent keepers fighting for 1st xi spot. So yeah good point. 2nds could do with a decent stumper but not sure weather you want to play in div 2 or back in one.
We played outibridge twice last year. Didn't see him. He's a good talent. Shame if he's just given up.
-
Yeah, he played a couple of ok knocks but was found wanting a bit really. Was too 1 dimensional and based his game on putting the bad ball away. Unfortunately, as Simmy will tell you at that level you just don't get bad balls. Too many times he was on 20 from 20 overs and then got out which didn't help the team in any way, you have to either kick on or bat through if you are going to do that.
Not really sure what I'm doing to do yet, my other option is to take up bowling spin properly and keep if required but who knows!
-
Simmy - If you play with the 1st then I will definitely have stood in a couple of your games this year - Whitley Hall and Conisborough??
Kieron - I had a couple of your 1st XI games this year too
-
What is your name mate (if you don't mind me asking?)?
I only played the first game of the season against Whitley and the rained off game against Rotherham
-
Kieron - it's Richard Blakeley
-
shot on 4:18 made me giggle
:o

I have to be honest I would have done the same... :D :o ???

clearly the ONLY reason they got out for less than 100 was the fact that the team batting first seemed to have a shockingly poor "bats per player in the team" ratio of 2:11, as opposed to the more acceptable 5:1
-
I'm pretty sure they all have different bats just the same brand! as guy that got bowled is one of the reps lol

Remember you well fella, good hands behind the sticks bud! Watched the video last week on FB too, think Ian Simon posted a link.
I was at Darfield on Saturday which was called off but popped by yours to watch up to half time
-

The team you're on about finished second in our league and won the Yorkshire council playoff final as well. The opener (at least) will be using a B3 next year ;)

Not a bad team really eh?
I have faced foster twice and had 2 golden ducks :(
-
Foster is just a machine with bat and ball.
They say probably the best player to have never actually played county cricket?
-
i dare say that is a possibility!
look at his stats! lovely bloke as well

impressive stats .... looks to be a very good and very consistent player
-
I played against him 25 years ago when he was at Gomersal in the CYCL.....he was some player back then, at the time he batted more than bowled.

B Mac was that impressed with your videos simmo he did his own.

That leave at 6:16 is probably the worst I have ever seen! What was he doing?!
