Second team vice-captain Adil Parker is our leading gloveman in terms of dismissals in 2012. ‘Dildo’ has had 24 victims this season with a staggering 14 stumped. His highlight of the summer would be in the second eleven’s defeat by Edmonton on June 16 when he got a staggering 5 stumpings in one game. Dildo has also had an excellent season with the bat scoring 469 runs.
First team gloveman, Wayne Whitson has had a solid season with gloves picking up 13 victims in his 13 games. He has taken more catches than any other keeper with 11 victims being caught.
Peter Doole, who is now the custodian of the third team has had an injury hit season but he has still got 8 dismissals.

Our leading fielders in terms of catches are Andy Carr and Sammy Hawes, both who have made 10 catches this season. Geezer who is currently third in the leading runscorers for the club this season has also had a splendid season fielding in the first eleven and has been exceptional in the covers.
Sammy is in his first season of senior cricket and has been a revelation in the fourth team earning high praise from captain Simon Heaney.
Second team captain Phil Bush is in third place with 9 catches with his first team counterpart Danny Hawes in fourth place with 9 catches.
