Gongs for Shawn and Hoppy

The Western Province Cricket Club awards night took place last Friday, (16th), and two Stokers received awards.

Shawn’s trophy is in recognition of his 6-for against Milnerton CC, (scorecard : http://www.websports.co.za/cricket/live.html?gid=81871&iid=2&dbl=true), and Hoppy bagged ten in WPCC’s match against Ottoman CC to earn his.

Well done, lads! Those trophies should fit nicely on the mantelpiece behind the more prestigious Richard Fairbairn Cup, England Cup and the Hugh Dharmasena Spirit of Cricket Cups that we gave you in September. (Link : http://www.stokecc.co.uk/2017/09/16/senior-awards/)
