What a fantastic day at Old Glossop Cricket Club as we had the honour of hosting the Bissenden Cup Final this weekend.

Firstly, congratulations to the winners New Mills Cricket Club on a superb achievement and commiserations to the runners-up High Lane Cricket Club who played their part in a fantastic showcase of Derbyshire & Cheshire League cricket. Both teams represented themselves and their clubs brilliantly, making for a memorable final.

The ground looked absolutely outstanding and was a credit to everyone involved. A huge thank you must go to all the volunteers who worked tirelessly behind the scenes in the days leading up to the match and throughout the day itself. From preparing the square and outfield, organising the event, helping with parking and logistics, running the bar, serving refreshments, and keeping everything running smoothly, your efforts did not go unnoticed.

Thank you also to the players, umpires, scorers, supporters and officials from both clubs who helped create such a brilliant atmosphere. Your support and sportsmanship made the occasion one to remember.

This year is particularly special as Old Glossop Cricket Club celebrates its 125th anniversary, and we were incredibly proud to mark this milestone by hosting the prestigious Derbyshire & Cheshire League Bissenden Cup Final for the very first time in our history. To welcome so many players, officials and spectators to the club during this landmark year was a real privilege.

Thank you to everyone who played a part in making the day such a success. We hope all those who attended enjoyed the occasion and we look forward to welcoming you back to Old Glossop Cricket Club again soon.

Old Glossop Cricket Club recently hosted six teams of young players for a successful Girls' Dynamos Cricket Festival, showcasing the growing popularity of girls' cricket and inspiring more young people to take up the sport.

The festival brought together girls from clubs across the area for an evening of friendly competition, skill development and fun in a welcoming environment designed to encourage participation at every level. Players enjoyed an action-packed programme of matches supported by coaches, volunteers and families.

The event, held at the Glossop Glass & Glazing Ground off Manor Park Road, formed part of the England and Wales Cricket Board's Dynamos Cricket programme, a nationwide initiative introducing children aged 8 to 11 to the game through enjoyable, fast-paced sessions.

The programme helps youngsters develop their batting, bowling and fielding skills while building confidence, making friends and progressing into regular club cricket. For many of the girls taking part, the festival represented the next step on their cricketing journey with Old Glossop Cricket Club and clubs across the region.

Phil Jones, Old Glossop Cricket Club's Under-9s and Girls' Coach, said:

“The festival was a fantastic celebration of girls' cricket. It was brilliant to see so many players enjoying themselves, making new friends and growing in confidence throughout the evening. Events like this are vital in showing that cricket is a game for everyone and in creating opportunities for more girls to get involved and stay involved in the sport."

As a community club, Old Glossop Cricket Club has continued to invest in opportunities for girls and young people as part of its commitment to developing grassroots cricket within the community. The club hopes the success of the festival will encourage even more girls to pick up a bat and ball and discover everything the sport has to offer.

Anyone interested in joining Old Glossop Cricket Club's girls' or junior sections is encouraged to get in touch to find out more about training sessions and upcoming opportunities to get involved.
