CONGRATULATIONS DIBBER.  

 
 AN OUTSTANDING AWARD TO AN OUTSTANDING CRICKETER WHO IS ALSO A MODEST, FRIENDLY AND WELL LIKED MAN.  
 
 DIBBER'S EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE IN LANCASHIRE LEAGUE CRICKET OVER TWENTY YEARS HAS RESULTED IN A FINELY TUNED SUCCESSFUL FORMULA FOR MEDIUM PACED BOWLING IN LEAGUE CRICKET.  
 IT IS;  
  KEEP FIT, PRACTICE, MAINTAIN YOUR ENTHUSIAM AND YOUR COOL, BOWL A FULL LENGTH WITH A GOOD REPETATIVE ACTION. 
ADDITIONALLY BOWL AN ACCURATE OFF STUMP LINE WITH AN ABILITY TO MOVE THE BOWL EITHER WAY.  
 (MANY CRICKETERS HAVE SOME OF THESE ABILITIES, VERY FEW MOST OF THEM).  
 
 THE RESULT  -   YOU GO FOR UNDER 3 RUNS PER OVER ,   
 THEREFOR IF YOU BOWL 20 OVERS ONLY 50-60 RUNS ARE CONCEDED PER MATCH  AND 3-4 WICKETS ON AVERAGE WILL FOLLOW. 
 
 USING THIS METHOD DIBBER HAS MASTERED MEDIUM PACED BOWLING BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE  IN LANCASHIRE LEAGUE CRICKET OVER THE PAST TWENTY YEARS.  
 HIS PLACE IN THE LEAGUE'S HISTORY IS  ALSO ASSURED.  
 
 LONG MAY HIS SUCCESS CONTINUE.  
 
 TAKE A BOW DIBBER AND ACCEPT IT, DON'T DEFLECT IT ELSEWHERE .
 
 IAN MAC
                  P.S. A SUPPORTIVE FAMILY ALSO COMES  IN THE SUCCESSFUL FORMULA. HE HAS THAT AS WELL.
 

 

Fantastic achievement for David and a great accolade for the Club; richly deserved !

We are all very,very proud Dibbs !
