Due to changing family circumstances, we aren’t able to run the DFXI anymore. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has been involved over the years, it has been a roller coaster. Sunny days, rainy days, amazing catering & even the occasional outstanding batting & bowling display all went in to making this a blast.

5 years is a good run & I’m sure that David would understand why it has to end.

Thanks Chaps.

As we always ask ‘Who won the trophies last year?’ here is a recap, so we can compare new trophy winners at the end of the 2012 season.

DFXI Batter of the Year – Luke Unit

DFXI Bowler of the Year – Jason Brown

DFXI All-rounder of the Year – Eddie Haddock

DFXI Fielder of the Year – Jon Burton

DFXI Best New-comer – Dean Lowe

DFXI Players’ Player – Barnaby Robinson

Here we are again, another winter is nearly over, another cricket season is almost upon us. Will Dean turn out not to be as good as he appears? Will Luke challenge him for best batting average? Will Eddie smash more sixes than anyone else (again)? Will Barnaby raise his average to double figures (please, oh please)? These questions will be answered between April & August.

Thanks to the good folks at Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council, we have had our match dates confirmed early this year. You can view these on the Club Info page, where you can also book which matches you would like to play in.

Here’s looking forward to a good season of proper English cricket.
