Awards for Wells and Horrington CC duo

KEVIN Russell and Rachel Richards of Wells and Horrington CC were honoured at the Somerset Cricket Foundation Cricket Collective Awards night.

Having played his 1,000th game for Wells and Horrington CC – and previously Horrington CC – Kevin won the Lifetime Achievement Award.

Rachel was recognised for her outstanding contribution to coaching development.

It rounds off a superb first season for the club, formed by the merger of Wells CC and Horrington CC in March.

The first and second teams both came third in their respective leagues, with the third team developing a significant number of juniors. Meanwhile, the Women’s and Juniors section thrived, welcoming many new players into the sport.

Preparations for the 2024 season will start in the new year. If interested in joining the club, email wellsandhorringtoncc@gmail.com
