Patience has become a great virtue for Breamore, who were refused promotion from Regional South West 1 three times in the past ten years before a change in Hampshire League policy relating to New Forest clubs has allowed them entry into County Division 4 West in 2019.
In fact, its third time lucky for Breamore, who finished in promotion places in both 2016 and 2017 before this year's third place behind champions Hyde and runners-up Lyndhurst & Ashurst got them their long overdue promotion ticket.
It's good news for the prolific Marlow brothers, Shaun and Steve, who have dominated SW1 attacks for the past decade or more and bowling pair Andy Bennett and Tom Marlow, this season's leading wicket takers.
Breamore's picturesque ground, a few miles north of Fordingbridge, is illustrated above.
