My season never really got going I changed clubs in Jan 2016 to cut down on travelling turned out to be up there with the worst cricketing decisions of my career after 3 matches in  by mid May couldn't wait to leave couldn't play for 2 weeks due to club I wanted to leave Sec messing up my transfer form.
Went back to my old club at the being of June  played 3 matches then had to stop playing due to my mother who lived 200 miles away becoming terminally ill which led to me being away from home.
Started playing again at the end of July. 2 matches were rained off in August  played on the last Saturday of August which was the last match  didn't get a bat as the rain came down.
Through it all never felt out of form with the bat just short of consistency and match practice.

May have been my first ever season as an adult (stopped playing as a kid), but I was terrible with the bat in the limited opportunities I got. Didn't bowl, happy with that. Fielding felt good on the whole, although injuries have bothered me at certain points.

Club finished with winning 15 and losing 6, so overall pretty happy. Room for improvement.

First season back for a while and really enjoyed it playing with a great bunch of guys including @uknsaunders @19reading87 and @Maverick79 on here!

Good season for the club gaining promotion after finishing runners up.

Personally I'm just glad to be back playing and enjoying my cricket again had a few starts both Saturday's and Sunday's and three runs away especially on my league debut where batting at 8 got to 18 then played a horrendous hoik across the line where a boy out and runs where there for the taking and getting stumped on 33 for the Sunday side while my opening partner went on to get 90!

Really looking for next year and hopefully giving more to the team with both bat and ball!

Roll on 2017!

Finished the league season with an average of 42. Overall 700+ runs at over 40. And captained a promotion winning team. Time to winter well now

Scored more league runs in a season than ever before with my H4L Matt Coles bat. Plus my team reached the final of the village cup so I got to play at Lords. We got absolutely stuffed but despite the result it probably has to be my best cricketing experience.

Can't wait to see what H4L have got lined up for 2017!

[Gurujames]

Scored my highest league score, beating my previous best by 1 run. 3 out of the 4 sides I played for won their divisions and gained promotion.
Also reached 3 20/20 finals and lost the lot.

Poor poor.

Started of wth a few decent 40s but then strugglesd in single figures.

Dropped form opening to 7 with no upturn in fortune.

A broken finger at work then put me out for 4 weeks. On return and ecent few scores midweek got me opening again sat and 3 fifties followed. I then started to play lms to make up for games I missed.

Just shy of 700 runs at 30 avg for all formats doesn't look to bad but in reality I felt poor and only one purple patch boosted my figures. And lms was too easy.

Hopefully I can remain fit and score 1000 runs for the first time in a season.

Decent Season..Scored close to 700 runs at 52 and got 36 wickets as well but the team didn't do too well and ended up 3rd from bottom

[SRH]

My best season so far, only shame was missing 7 games worth of bowling due to a side strain mid season

Highlight was getting 6 hundreds, going to be hard to top next year.

Couldn't buy a run, but ended up leading amateur wicket taker in the club in my first full season of bowling.

Had a poor 2016 season, we (finally) moved in March so was at a new club. Started in the 1's (which i was always a filler for) then went on holiday for a week and came back to being in the 2's. Being new i mainly batted 6 or 7 so didnt get a great chance to show what i can do and even when i did get the chance to move up i didnt take it. Was dropped to the 3's one week and then was back up. Got 29 (top score of the season which says alot) batting at 3 in the 2's only to be dropped again which at the time thought was harsh and then didnt really get a proper go after that.

Off the field my father in law passed away so all in all it summed up its only a game and there are far more important things. Made some new friends at my new club so want to get my head down over the winter, shift some weight and come back firing in 2017

[six and out]

I missed quite a few league games this season for one reason and another (weddings, holidays, kids ill on Saturday morning! etc...) so all in all had a good enough season opening the batting and keeping (although how much longer my body stands up to doing both i am not sure!) - carried my bat twice so meant i was on the park the whole day for 2 games this season keeping as well.

Highlight was definitely an 197 opening stand which apparently is a new club record.

League Stats -

Year   Games Inns   NO   Runs   High   Avg   50s   100s   4s   6s   Ducks    % Team Runs
2016   13       12    2     444      102* 44.4  1      1     36      3       0        19.76

Keeping - 8 catches (think i left a few for 1st slip as i am getting old!) and 7 stumpings

R and R over the winter and nets will be here before you know it!
