FANTASTIC BRIGG SCHOOL SUMMER SPORTS REUNION


The Briggensians' Association 2018 summer sports reunion cricket match at Sir John Nelthope School in Brigg proved enjoyable.
A team of Old Boys played The School in a traditional fixture originally established in the 1920s when Brigg Grammar School was still providing secondary education.
Brigg Blog was very disappointed to have to decline an invitation to take part, as we had to be at a very important cricket league meeting elsewhere.

We are delighted to see this traditional fixture continue for another year.

PICTURES AND REPORT FROM JON TAYLOR


We played the old boys cricket match - the first old boys' game on our new pitch.
The old boys - Nick Beacock, David Baggott, David Willey, Tony Beel, Paul Neal, Simon Dixon, Liam Redmond, Mark Dawson, Adam Dunderdale and Kieran Brooker - won the toss and put the young boys in to bat.
The young boys scored 59 in a total of 14 overs with a notable performance from the Year 7 student Matthew Oades, who scored 22 before being run out on the final ball of the innings.
The early wickets of George Thomas and Owen Dunderdale had gone for 1 and 4.
Captain Tom Donnelly scored 8 before being bowled by Baggott, Brett Howden scored 5 and a late cameo performance by Alex Smith, including 2 fours and a six, took the young boys to their total.
The old boys managed to reach their target in the 12th over.
David Baggott hit 3 sixes in gaining 19 before retirement. Tony Beel was run out without scoring by a very sharp throw from Owen Dunderdale.
Opener Dixon scored 12 in singles, Willey scored 4, Brooker (Caistor's first team captain) scored 14 and Redmond also scored a quick 14.
All those who turned up had a fantastic evening.
I would once again like to thank Brigg Biomass for the grant we received for the new pitch and the contribution made from the Briggensians' Association.
I would also like to thank Helen Annis for helping write the bid.
