Winner: Carl Hartmann - Crosby CC
Carl is a vital junior member of Crosby Cricket Club assisting the Committee in various aspects and he plays an integral role in the transition from junior to senior league cricket in the club. This year, as Carl moved to U16 with no weekly junior cricket, Carl did all the pre-season mowing of the field in preparation for the season during Covid and the majority thereafter once the season got underway. He assisted in the pitch marking and field set up for home games he played in and various junior matches he attended. Carl also volunteered for all club fund raisers, E2E marshalling, bag packing and assisting with the club quiz doing the raffle. He has also assisted coaches for the last 3 years at the Manx Youth Games and managed the majority of the club iPad’s for match set up, scoring and submission of results
Club Volunteer of the Year
Nominees: Brendan Bennett- Peel & St Johns CC. Janelle Clarke - Finch Hill CC, Tom Moffatt - Ramsey CC, Adam Page - Ramsey CC, Tom Reader - Ramsey CC, Fiona Roome - Castletown CC and Claude Spencer - Cronkbourne CC.
Winner: Janelle Clarke - Finch Hill CC.
If ever a person deserved an award for their efforts as a volunteer working tirelessly behind the scenes of a Manx cricket club it is Janelle. She has three children all playing for our different teams and supports them to the maximum (naturally), helps organise our junior section and Manx Youth Games, assists the senior captains with team selection and player availability, liaises with the IOMCA with regard to fixtures, coordinates with our groundsman regarding pitch preparation, scores most of the games she watches (including for the IOM 1st XI in Guernsey), sits on our committee as club welfare officer, participates in the ladies cricket events, is webmaster for our Play Cricket page and club website, and is basically the oil that keeps Finch Hill CC wheels turning. Sadly this season we haven’t been treated to her excellent cricket teas on Saturdays but we live in hope for next year.
