Congratulations to our U15s captain Vidoosha Jayawardena who was last night awarded Young Player of the Year by The Middlesex 1987 Cricket League at their annual awards ceremony at Old Actonians CC.

As part of the 1987 Division 2 promotion-winning Third XI, Vidoosha scored 438 runs in eight innings at an average of 62.57, including six half-centuries. He 
scored a total of 1,228 runs for Bessborough (colts and seniors) in the 2015 season at an average of 40.93 with 11 half-centuries.
