Our end of season dinner and awards night will be held on 10th October at RedChilliez Restaurant, 629 London Road, Westcliff (7.30 pm for 8pm ).The restaurant offers South Indian delicacies and has put together an excellent menu for just £20 per head. The club will be offering a discount to “subscription scheme” members and 2018 season players and officials.

In addition to the fabulous cuisine, we will also be presenting trophies for the leading bowler, leading batsman, Players’ Player of the Year, the David Thomas trophy for outstanding performance and the Ken White Cup for outstanding contribution. There maybe some other special awards and hopefully a few surprises too. It looks like being a fun evening but we will need your support to ensure this and we would love to see there so please let me know asap if you would like to come along.

2018 was a great season, let’s see it off with a bang.

We closed out the 2018 season with a fabulous day at Chalkwell Park, where the sun shone and a good time was had by all. Mount were victorious, defeating Old Westcliffians and a hastily thrown together WOSCC side to retain the Nick Clough trophy. Afterwards, we even had time for a 10 over thrash between two scratch sides just for fun. Our thanks to WOSCC for hosting, Peter Shaw for organising the OW side, Clarissa for scoring, Stewart for officiating and to everyone who came along and made it such a good day.

The season has now ended but before we begin our winter hibernation, a few notices for you. First, the annual awards dinner is in the final planning stages and we are hoping that it will go ahead on either the 2nd or 3rd October – possibly the following week but details to follow soon. Would all current trophy/cup holders get in touch asap to arrange the return of their prizes. Secondly, in addition to the awards dinner and the AGM (early December), there are a number of social events planned through the off-season and we will announce these as and when details are finalised.

Finally, a huge thank you to all of you – all the players, committee members, officials, Mount supporters, and our families - who permit us to indulge our love for this magnificent game - 2018 has been a successful season for Mount on and off the field and it would not be possible without your efforts and support.
