1st XI Glossop 185/4 (34.3) - Glodwick 184/7 (50) A very different weekend to last week with the weather! Glossop lost the toss and had a bowl. After an uncharacteristically loose start with Glodwick racing to 44-1 off 7 overs Glossop bowled with much more control to restrict Glodwick to 184 on a very good cricket wicket with lots of credit going to will and Matt . In the chase Glossop lost 3 early wickets rapidly to put some pressure on but Lee and Matt batted with great composure to have a strong partnership to score the bulk of the runs. Dan senior came into finish the job in style with some classy shots and Glossop winning by 6 wickets earning a bonus point win. Matt Sonczak 3-38 (12) Will Hargreaves 2-31 (15) Lee Dale 72* (86) Dan senior 48* (33) Matt Sonczak 45 (76) 2nd XI Woodley 122/10 (31.2) - Glossop 124/4 (27.1) Another excellent performance from the team on a soft & slow wicket. Glossop won the toss and chose to bowl. Despite an aggressive start from Woodley, Glossop’s bowlers were calm and disciplined ensuring wickets fell regularly. They were backed up by some excellent fielding, notably from Jack Stopford. Despite an early wobble chasing a modest total, another perfectly measured innings from Ollie Boothroyd was the difference. Good partnerships with Joe Bolton and then Dave Allen meant Glossop quickly silenced a vocal home side to win by 6 wickets and get the bonus point. Sam Dyson 4-42 (11) Joe Doody 3-23 (9) Ollie Boothroyd 56 (66) Dave Allen 19* (47) 4th XI Glossop 94/10 (21.2) - Dinting 97/4 (19) Glossop CC made a difficult start, slipping to 16–4 as Dinting’s bowlers dominated early. A vital 43‑run stand between Joseph Bolton (39) and Steve Marsh (11) steadied the innings, with Olly Boothroyd adding a brisk 11. But once the partnership ended, wickets fell regularly and Glossop were dismissed for 94, leaving their attack with a small but defendable total. In reply, Glossop fought hard. Nathan Allen struck twice to lift hopes, while Jonathon Kirk bowled an excellent spell of 1–15 from five overs. The pressure continued when Freddie claimed his first senior wicket, reducing Dinting to 66–4 and giving Glossop a genuine opening. However, Dinting regrouped and completed the chase without further loss, finishing on 97–4. Under 11's Hayfield 198 - Glossop 153 The Young Lions put in a gutsy shift despite the loss to a strong Hayfield side. We posted 153 with sharp boundaries from Jake and Elliott and great running from Arabelle and Max. Tight bowling spells followed, with wickets for Elliott and William, plus a brilliant, economical finish from Jake. In the field we stayed focused, and William — who stopped everything despite a sore hand — earned Player of the Match.
