Bosham Cricket Club

Welcome to our website

Bosham (pronounced Boz’am) is a small coastal village located in the south-west corner of Sussex. Cricket has been played in the village for over 100 years and is an important part of village life.

In 2010 we have matches arranged for four teams. For the junior members of the club we have an under-10 team and an under-12 team that play in the Sussex Western Area League. We field two teams in open-age cricket. On Saturdays we play in South East Division Two of the Hampshire Cricket League. On Sundays we play a series of friendly games against other local sides.

Every Monday evening from Easter through to the school summer holidays we hold a training session for our junior members.

Purpose and objectives of the Club

Attract without discrimination, adult and young people from our local community to participate in playing and non playing activities in the amateur sport of cricket.
To offer members improved facilities which will enable them to flourish and play cricket in a safe and friendly environment within the spirit of the game.

Bosham Cricket Club Fundraising Quiz starts off 2012 on a high

The inaugural joint Bosham Cricket Club/Sailing Club Quiz held at the Sailing Club on Saturday 14 January to raise funds for the Cricket Club attracted a merry crowd of members and friends of both clubs. The event was a sell out success with some 80 people attending. The money raised will go towards a fund to build a cricket pavilion which the Cricket Club has planning permission to build at their Delling Close field.

Quiz master John Betts produced a challenging series of questions and conducted proceedings with his usual blend of authority and good humour: all protests (spurious and otherwise) were neatly dealt with. Despite a very competitive evening, teams from the Sailing Club took first and second places with the cricketers an honourable third, though all three teams went away with liquid refreshment prizes. Well done to the winning teams and we hope you enjoy your wines. Mention should also be made of the Cricket Club's "Young Ones" team (average age 12) who surprised everyone with their strong knowledge especially in the " sport" and "identify the picture" categories.

A special thanks to Phil Cotman at BSC for all his hard work and to Claire Harrison for the food.

The Cricket Club plan on further fundraising activities later this year including a "celebrity cricket match". Watch this space for details.

The Club welcomes members of all ages and abilities-you just have to have an interest in cricket in Bosham and surrounding areas! We would love to hear from anyone who would like to help the club in any way whether with fundraising, playing or helping with coaching or ground maintenance. Enquiries may be directed to our Club Secretary Martin Farrell.

Ifield vs Bosham - Sussex Junior Cricket Festival u12s

With one final effort of a weeks long cricket tournament Bosham just failed to take the final Ifield wicket that would have secured a deserved win. Thomas Phizackerley and Thomas Gogarty bowled the last three overs seeking the tenth Ifield wicket. With ten balls to go, Haroon Mahomed prodded forward the ball hit the shoulder of the bat and the ball looped tantalisingly to Jason Beard at point but he failed to hang on to the catch. There was another huge appeal when Neel Nayee shuffled back and across his stumps but the umpire turned down the appeal for leg before. Somehow Ifield survived and to great cheers from the home crowd held on for a draw.

Bosham had won the toss and elected to bat. Openers Gogarty and Jamie Glennie got the team off to a solid start scoring 39 and 29 respectively. Luke Haddow (21) and Thomas Phizackerley (13) also played well but it was an excellent innings from Barnaby Watney that put Bosham in a commanding position by the close of the innings. Watney's unbeaten 28 included the only six of the day which he hit far over mid wicket. Batting with the Bosham tail he guided his team to a total of 170 and a declaration.

Mahad Ahmed hit a brilliant 74 as he kept Ifield in the game. With the comfort of having plenty of runs in hand Bosham could afford to attack and they picked up wickets. When a sharp piece of fielding from Dominic Gogarty claimed the wicket of Tharidu Abeyrathna Bosham sensed victory. Abeyrathna had scored 23 and apart from Ahmed was the only other Ifield batsmen to make double figures. When Phizackerley returned in to the attack and claimed the wicket of Ahmed Bosham seemingly had the game won. Wickets fell in quick succession and with a full three overs remaining the visitors needed just one more wicket. However they could not make the break through and ended the tournament with their second winning draw of the week.

Bosham v Horsham Trinity - Sussex Junior Cricket Festival u12s

Olly Lewis scored a magnificent 78 for Horsham Trinity. In partnership with Andrew Price (35) the pair added a Club record 135 for the third wicket and played the major part in posting a commanding total of 190. In reply Bosham could only manage 109 and suffered their first defeat of the Festival.

The day had started well for Bosham with Thomas Phizackerley winning the toss and Luke Haddow continuing his great form taking two wickets in two deliveries in the fourth over to reduce Horsham Trinity to 20 for 2. Then the momentum went out of the bowling attack as Lewis and Price piled on the runs for the visitors. Lewis' innings included a magnificent pull for six and six fours.

Gogarty bowls the Horsham Trinity batsmen

It was not until the 26th over that Haddow returned for a second spell and made the big breakthrough clean bowling Price. He followed up in his next over by bowling Lewis and with dominant batsmen back in the pavilion were 157 for 4. Bosham bowled with more enthusiasm in the remaining overs of the match taking a further five wickets. Thomas Gogarty (2), Luke Spencer (2) and Joe Farrell (1) doing the damage. Horsham Trinity closed on 190 for 9.

The Bosham reply started ominously when Jamie Glennie was given out LBW to the first ball of the innings only to be reprieved when the umpire realised that he had got an inside edge. However, the reprieve was short lived and only two balls later Glennie was dismissed LBW to Max Tustin.

Gogarty and Haddow produced a determined effort for the second wicket and had managed to add 67 when Haddow lost concentration and was well caught by Price off the bowling of Scott Cuming. A flury of Bosham wickets followed and the home team soon found themselves reduced to 102 for 9 with 5 overs of the game remaining. Michael Hellyer and Jason Beard showed considerable fortitude as they battled for an unlikely draw. With only 8 balls of the match remaining Beard was bowled by Lewis and Bosham had lost their first match of the week.
