The Bradninch 1st XI players have been voted the pick of the A Division bunch by the match umpires throughout the recent season that saw them promoted to the Premier Division of the Devon County Cricket League for the first time in their history.

However there was only a mid-table finish for the club when the final markings were collated with regard to umpire markings for the 2008 season. Tavistock won both the Club award and also picked up the Captain�s accolade. Skipper Joel Murphy was edged out of 3rd spot by the smallest of margins by the Barton skipper � well done Joel for a top three finish.

The overall awards are based on marks awarded by the match umpires throughout the season with points awarded for pitch, facilities, skipper and team to arrive at a final figure. In terms of a 1, 2, 3, the end of season statistics showed:

  1. Tavistock

  2. Cornwood

  3. Braunton

  4. Bovey Tracey

  5. Bradninch

  6. South Devon

  7. Barton

  8. Chudleigh

  9. Alphington

  10. Brixham.

The breakdown for Bradninch was (each standing out of ten): Pitch 7th, Ground & facilities 5th, Skipper 3rd and of course players 1st � the latter saw them edge out Tavistock with a score of 95.76 as opposed to 95.37.
