24/08/10….Thame United win cricket trophy!

AROUND 100 people enjoyed the warm, weekend sunshine at Thame cricket ground on Sunday, many of them having not played cricket for many years, and some, like Howzat! the ladies’ team, were new to the game!

The Fun Day was to give non members the opportunity to have a go at playing a six-wicket match and to meet club members, and to help raise funds for much-needed new nets for training and practice.

A team made up of members, family and friends of Thame United FC won the trophy, after chasing 50 runs with two wickets to spare racked up by their nearest rivals – a team which included a group of Oxford United supporters!. A big six from Thame United Captain, Mark West made the difference in the end.
