The Admin is raising a glass. The final weekend of the season and Matt Kirkham has decided to leave absolutely nothing in the tank.

108* on Saturday. 8 fours. 7 sixes. A few helpful dimensions on the straight boundary, but a hundred is a hundred. Then Sunday comes around and Matt does it all over again — 101* from just 53 balls, with 14 fours and 3 sixes.

38 innings. 1,017 runs. Matt has played more cricket than anyone could reasonably complain about — despite spending most of the season telling everyone how much he hates it. He moans about cricket every week, then turns up every week. Make it make sense.

A proud Kidderminster Harriers supporter, occasionally known to choose the football over the cricket, and a Cutnall Green lad whose local side have just earned promotion in the same league as Droitwich. Yet somehow, Matt still chooses us. We’ll take it.

And it’s not just Matt who’s part of the furniture. Dad Dave is the man behind the BBQ, keeping everyone fed while his son spends the summer scoring a thousand runs.

Then there’s the lifestyle.

Friday night: 3am finish.
Saturday match: arrives 20 minutes before the start.
Saturday night: curry with the lads at our amazing sponsor, Gurkha Majestic Dining
Sunday: another unbeaten hundred.

And just when you thought the season was over, Matt’s off to Lisbon next weekend with the cricket lads for the end-of-season trip. Because clearly 1,017 runs, two hundreds and a weekend of cricket wasn’t enough to celebrate the 2026 season.

Beer in hand, big mouth switched on and somehow still finding time to score runs.

A magnificent 4/22 from 6 overs yesterday for the Sunday XI for Joe Murray earns him YPOTW 👏

The Admin is applauding. 53 years young and still making batting line-ups question their life choices. The Spa batted first, Karl walked out at 115/9, contributed with a handy 7* and then got to work with the ball. Ten overs. 1/11. That’s 1.1 runs an over.

A Droitwich Spa institution. 13 years captaining the 2nd XI, a former 1st XI player, and 25* years coaching at the club — although apparently he’s finally been allowed to retire from that particular punishment. The left-arm medium pacer still has plenty in the tank, though, and clearly hasn’t read the memo about taking it easy at 53.

And when he’s not turning up for the Spa, he’s pulling on the whites for county Over-50s. Because apparently 53 is no excuse to stop running in from the boundary.

With his current look, we’re not entirely sure whether we’ve got a veteran cricketer, Father Christmas or the captain from the Birds Eye adverts walking onto the field of play. 🎅🐟

One thing’s for certain — Captain Birds Eye is still delivering the goods.

The Left-Arm Locksmith. The Second XI Statesman. The Over-50s Menace. The Goddardfather.

YPOTW

Dylan Price showing there’s clearly something in the Price family genes — 32* off 28 balls, including 4 fours, at a strike rate of 114.3.

Usually found behind the stumps, just like Dad Tim, but this time Dylan did his damage with the bat before turning his arm over for a tidy over: 1-0-4-0.

The gloves are the same.
The Price name is the same.
And that strike rate is heading in the same direction.
