Christmas Sing A Long – 19/12/24

Posted on by Noel Bullock

A massive thank you to Mrs Emma JM and Lawns Park Primary School for coming along and doing their annual Christmas Carols at New Farnley Cricket Club last night.

Care In The Community

Posted on by Noel Bullock

A massive thank you must go out to one of our loyal sponsors Cravens fish & chips for their due care and attention earlier on this afternoon. During the strong winds, Rita Cummings unfortunately stumbled and whilst doing so, she has a suspected broken leg. Mandy Armitage was serving customers at a busy dinner time rush when the incident occurred but she quickly reacted and managed to sit her upright on the wooden bench inside out of the cold. I waited with my fellow New Farnley Community Centre “Bingo Buddy”until family members arrived some 45mins later who took her to the hospital and we had a right good old chin wag. We’ve all got our fingers crossed and many thanks to Deidre Williams also for her help and assistance which was greatly appreciated.

Hutchison Made Permanent Jersey Director Of Cricket

Posted on by Noel Bullock

Paul Hutchison has been appointed as Jersey’s director of cricket on a permanent basis.

The 47-year-old former Yorkshire, Sussex and Middlesex seam bowler was appointed on an interim basis in March after Neil MacRae left the role.

Under Hutchison’s leadership, Jersey’s men progressed to the final round of qualifying for the 2026 T20 World Cup and are top of ICC Challenge League B.

“It’s nice that, after an initial period, that my bosses have seen the work that I’m doing and they’ve decided ‘this is the right man for the role’,” Hutchison told BBC Sport.

He also oversee all women’s and age group cricket for the island along with his men’s head coach role.

Hutchison says he his focused on continuing the international success of all the island’s sides as they look to climb the ICC rankings.

“We’ve got two big men’s tournaments next year, with the T20 [World Cup] and the 50 overs [ICC Champions Trophy], and we’ll be pushing very hard to try to qualify in both.

“That leads to bigger and better things for everyone involved in Jersey cricket.

“The girls next year have their own ICC tournament which we’ll be pushing very hard for them to get some experience before that and then hopefully have a decent campaign.

“The under-19’s have a World Cup qualifying campaign themselves, so there’s plenty going on over the 2025 season.”
