POOLE TOWN are Dorset Premier League champions for the first time since 2014 - that despite losing two of their opening four matches in May.  A 14-match unbeaten run swept them to the title.
Badrul  Allam (469 runs, inc 129* at Puddletown), Jordan Betts (407), Lewis Marais (322) and Richard Armstrong (289) led the way with the bat, while Joey Wormington (33 wickets) and the evergreen Joe Wilson (31) spearheaded the Dolphins' attack, along with Scott Bellamy (25) and Dan Jackson (24) 
Runners-up Wimborne & Colehill had triple centurion Ben Brigden (674) as leading DPL run scorer, with Sam Goodhew's 38-wicket haul winning the bowling award for Bere Regis.

Aircraft pilot Cameron Park was flying high with bat and ball all summer long, getting his wings after scoring 509 runs and taking 27 wickets.
Park made an unbeaten 113 against Holybourne plus three scores of 50 or more and, with the ball, twice celebrated six-wicket hauls.  Steve Berryman (464) and Tom Crowley (409) both scored over 400 runs, while skipper Alex Reidy's 25 wicket tally included two five-wicket hauls.
