💙 This weeks spotlight is Kieran Gillott-power

🗓️ Kieran is in his first season at Holmbridge having signing this year from local team Scholes where he played for many years coming up through their juniors. Our first team opening bowler already with 21 wickets to his name at the Bridge. Plus a hard hitting middle order batter with over 200 runs so far this season. And looking likely to bag the 1st XI Andrew MacLeod catching award with already an impressive 15 catches. Certainly one to watch for the future at Holmbridge.

And for the final time this season.
Saturday sees the First XI host Shelley down at the Bridge.

While the Second XI travel up the hill a short way to take on Cartworth Moor (be interesting to know how many times we’ve played each other over the years).

And one final thank you to the weekends match sponsors Sconser Lodge Hotel and EYP Sports Therapy
Thank you for your continued support.

📣 IMPORTANT SAD ANNOUNCEMENT 📣

☕🏏 THE TEA LADIES ARE HANGING UP THEIR APRONS!

After an incredible 16 years, our three legendary 1st XI tea ladies — Fran Hazlewood-Mosby Sarah Gledhill and Emma — are calling time on their tea-making duties. ❤️

Most clubs gave up the proper cricket tea years ago. Sandwiches on a plate, job done. Not at the Bridge. For 16 seasons, Fran, Sarah and Emma have kept the knife-and-fork sit-down tea alive, every Saturday, whatever the scoreline, whatever the weather — a tradition most of the game has quietly let go of.

That’s not just hospitality. That’s three people deciding, week after week, that this club deserved the proper version of things. Their teas have been as much a part of our Saturdays as wickets, boundaries and discussions with the umpire! 😂

So from everyone at Holmbridge Cricket Club — a massive THANK YOU for 16 years of dedication, hard work, and quite frankly, blooming amazing teas. 👏👏👏

You’ve earned your retirement… although we’re not ruling out the odd emergency cake appearance. 🍰😉

Thank you, ladies. The Bridge won’t be the same on a Saturday without you. 💙🏏

This Saturday is their last hurrah, so if you’re about and have ever experienced these three wonderful ladies, please call in and say hello. I’m sure they’ll have a G&T on the go.

💙 This seasons penultimate spotlight is

🗓️ Joe is in his first season at Holmbridge having signed this year from local team Meltham, where he spent the last 1 1/2 seasons. A wicket keeper/batsman with just shy of 1000 runs to his name alongside over 40 victims with the gloves. Made an instant impact into the first XI away at Broad Oak with a stella 43 in his first knock for the 1s, which included a solid stand of 61 with Ethan. We’re all looking forward to Joe’s future at the Bridge.

💙 This weeks spotlight is Oliver Hardcastle

🗓️ Oliver has played at Holmbridge since he was a junior. Starting out in the Under 13s in 2019. And then making his senior debut in 2022 against Cartworth Moor, whilst still playing in the Under 15s. Somewhere along the way he’s managed to blag 11 overs with the ball, taking 2 wickets along the way! But its as a keeper that Oliver is best known, where he’s fast approaching 60 victims and as a batter fast closing in on his first 1000 runs for the club.

💙 In the spotlight this week is Martin Gledhill

🗓️ Martin joined the club in 1993 aged 18 and has been a key member here ever since. A consistent and often destructive opening batter, Gleds has over 5,000 club runs to his name and over 200 victims as wicketkeeper. He’s won club and league prizes throughout his time with us, alongside appearances for league representative sides. Martin has given countless hours to the club. He was 2XI captain from 2003–06 and has been our secretary since 2006. In his time as secretary, he’s overseen huge changes at the club, including the rebuilding of our clubhouse in 2017. He’s been our secretary through 3 chairmen, 3 treasurers and 6 1XI captains. In 2024, he was awarded the prestigious Lady Sykes Candlestick by the Huddersfield Premier League for his work and dedication to the club.

Gleds is Holmbridge through-and-through and the backbone of our club.
