2010 fixtures
Captain: Jon Gower
Vice Captains: Oliver Moore & Martin Newkirk
Won 15, lost 9. A satisfying season overall, and it would always be difficult to match the heady heights achieved in '09. The most stunning victory was achieved over Jesmond Jaguars in Dulwich, and other notable defeats were inflicted against Gardeners (twice) and Balham Roamers. There were a few nail-biting finishes against Gaieties (lost), Viscount and Pacific (won), but also a few disappointingly soft defeats (Ruislip Orientals, Pacific, LBS, Crossbats). Strongroom competed in a relaxed 20-over league at Crouch End, which proved popular in weekday evenings in mid-season. And of course, 2010 featured the very first Strongroom tour after some 26 years - a 2 1/2 day sojourn into Devon and Dorset which proved a great success on and off the pitch. Who will ever forget Andy Orme's Dolphin?
In terms of performances, Mellor once again tormented opposition with bat and ball, and we were indebted to performances and commitment throughout the season from the likes of Marty Newkirk and Ujjal Roy. Marty and Mellor both made tons, Ujjal took a five-for, and Proctor constructed a quality half-century in the penultimate game. Jimmy Hall and Will Davies stood out as two excellent recruits, especially significant as we will be losing a few before 2011 (Marty, Paddy, Ujjal and Oliver).
