After running successful 20/twenty competitions in 2005 and 2006, held on a Sunday on both occassions, Cleckheaton decided, provided the necessary sponsorship was forthcoming, to hold a floodlit competition in 2007, but it was not until around July that everything fell into place.
With the support of Morley chairman Graham Smith, his club entered into a joint venture agreement with us which saw the formation of a "Ton Up" club whose members put in £100 sponsorship each for places at a Celebration Dinner which was now to take place the evening after the trophy final.
Finally a sponsor was found for the event in John Wildman, managing director of local storage and distribution company Thompson, Davis & Co Ltd, and then David Gilbank of D G Electrical stepped in with an offer to provide floodlighting at no little cost to himself. An so the Thompson, Davis & Co. Ltd "Super-Twenty" was up and running.
Arrangements are already in progress for a repeat of this season's success. It promises to be even better next season with the availablity of better floodlight, and hopefully more competitive cricket.
THE UMPIRES
David Ellis, Paul Wiseman, David Sharp, Glyn Pearson.
Running in conjunction with the main tournament was the "SURRIDGE TROPHY" an under 9's competition. The combatants the Cleckheaton Wildcats, the Gomersal Bears, the Cleckheaton Whitesox, and the Morley Meerkats played their games before the main games and provided fine entertainment for those attending.
The final was won the by Gomersal Bears who defeated the Cleckheaton Wildcats, but all teams deserve a hand of applause for the entertainment they provided over the three evenings.
