Fourth XI Fixtures
Captains: Marc Lewis & Alex Beaumont
2021 saw the inaugural season for Wolvercote CC 4th XI. It is a remarkable indication of how far we have come in such a short space of time having only established a 2nd XI in 2008 and the 3rd XI in 2017! Nick Pinhol set up the Youth programme less than a decade ago and now we find ourselves fielding a team dedicated to providing a platform for our young cricketers in a formal adult league setting.
We have three principles in the 4s:
- We exist to give youth players a pathway into adult cricket: availability permitting, we have 5 youth players selected by the youth coaches that make the squad every week
- Everyone gets a chance to contribute: we do our best to ensure that every player either gets a bat or a bowl on any given Saturday
- We play to have fun – and take pride in the positives we draw from every game, even if we don’t win!
I’m thrilled to skipper the side and help create an environment which makes their first taste of adult cricket something our youngsters will look back on with fondness and pride.
