Match day 5/18 Results

Another mixed week for the club with 2/6 wins for the senior sides, but a win for the midweek 20/20 side last Thursday too.

The 1s lost to a good Norwich side having won the toss and elected to bat. Craig Press starring again with the bat with Sol Blazer also contributing with a well made 40.

Rob Porter was the 2s man of the match with 97 and 4 wickets, as the twos won their third game in a row beating Bradenham by 42 run. Stan Taylor taking his first 2s wicket in the game too.

The 3s and 5s also suffered defeats despite some great individual performances from Eusha, Chris Ashman and Jack Bailey. A convincing win for the 4th team helped by Wrighty with 104, Beano scoring 87 and Jimmy Catchpole with 4 wickets. An experienced performance!

The Sunday side lost to Norwich despite a maiden 100 for skipper Finn Adams.

This Saturday we have 4 games as the 3s have a weekend off and look for 4/4 wins (weather dependent).

Matchday 4/18 Results

A mixed weekend results with wins for the 2s and 5s, whilst the other three teams were on the end of comfortable losses.

Highlights of the weekend included Titch’s 69 vs Great Witchingham, John Allen’s 116 in the 3s and then three wickets for Phil Squire, Roy Kelly and Vinnay.

The 5s had several contributions with the bat as they continued their season in fine form and currently sit top of the league and the 2s picked up another win thanks to contributions with the bat from Nobbsy, Ports, Hasto and Finn in a solid chase at home to Martham.

5 more fixtures this Saturday as well as a Sunday game, 20/20 tonight and a ladies game this weekend too!

12/05/2026

Match day 2/18 Results

A bitterly disappointing weekend as a club, with 6 defeats for the senior sides but some incredibly close fought games. Some impressive performances with Dan Hastings and Jack Patterson scoring unbeaten 100’s on Sunday, Shane Tovell and Ben Clayton with well made half centuries and Finn Adams the pick of the weekend bowlers.

We look forward to putting the wrongs right and turning these results around swiftly this weekend.

Thanks to Ovamill for being our weekly sponsors once again!

Weekend Results

A real split in results with the 1s, 2s and 3s all losing their opening games of the season, with the 4s, 5s and Sunday XI having a successful weekend.

A few notable performances including the first 100 of the season from Rob Porter, half centuries from Toby, Michael and Eusha, with Olly Moore the stand out bowler with figures of 4/9 in the 4th team.

Thanks to Ovamill for sponsoring the weekend fixtures and we look forward to hopefully more wins this Saturday, as well as remembering the late, great Mick “Puddy” Ward. 🏏🏏

Mick “Pud” Ward

It is with great sadness that over the weekend, an Acle Cricket Club legend, Mick “Pud” Ward, sadly passed away.

It is impossible to write about Pud because whatever you say will not be enough to do justice to a unique and wonderful man, a man who was so loved by everyone at the cricket club and the village community and beyond.

Pud’s love of Acle CC began in the 1950’s while watching and made his first appearance at the age 17 as he said to treasurer Alex Patterson “you don’t understand we didn’t have Youth teams then”. Pud went on to play for 40 years and was a top player scoring numerous 100’s the total amount changed depending on the amount of Wherry he had consumed but certainly it was quite a few with I believe a top score of 135 NO in 1973 against Ashmanhaugh 🏏

After finishing his 1st team career he played and captained the 2nd team and after retiring continued to support the club in anyway possible including becoming landlord to a number of players from Australia, New Zealand and South Africa all of whom fell in love with Pud’s world.

At the moment it is impossible to imagine Saturdays in the summer without Pud but I’m sure he will be keeping an eye on us and toasting our wins with a Wherry and a whiskey🍺

Our love and thoughts are with Darren and Tim and the rest of Pud’s family.

This Saturday there will be a minutes silence in memory of Pud ahead of the fixtures, with everyone invited back to the social club to raise a glass in his name and reflect on what an incredible man Pud was.

Rest well Pud, you will be incredibly missed by everyone at the club and in the village, and we are all very grateful that our world had you in it. An Acle CC icon and legend. 🏏💛❤️💙

Match day 1/18 for the 2026 season!

Good luck to the 5 sides today as everyone starts their seasons and we are thankful to our main sponsors who are our weekly sponsors as well.

Good luck to in his first full season as 1s captain and to Dave Cosford who takes over from Jonesy as skipper of the 3s!

Up the A’s! 🏏🏏
