Lymington all-round cricketer Matt Metcalfe will be making a familiar trip down the Southampton Novotel catwalk on Friday evening when he collects the Southern Premier Division bowling award for the fourth time in seven years. He took 40 wickets this summer.
Championship winning Havant captain Ben Walker (739 runs) will be crowned batsman of the year, but Tom Arnold, who is wintering in Melbourne, will be unable to collect his Premier Division wicket-keeping prize.
Andover and Bournemouth cricketers scooped the Division 1 awards, with Glyn Treagus scoring 721 runs, including two centuries, to top the batting charts.
Fellow title winner Babu Veettil shared the bowling prize with teenage Bournemouth left-arm spinner Dom Clutterbuck – each took 35 wickets – while Lions’ captain in waiting Chris Park was top gloveman with 26 victims.
Fawley may have finished bottom of the pile in Division 2, but two of their players have picked up individual awards.
Spinner Wayne Smith (35 wickets) and wicketkeeper Kieran Earl (21 victims) collect prizes alongside Hartley Wintney captain Danny Plume, whose 582 runs won him the divisional batting award.
Paul Hawkins (575 runs) and spinner Dave Orchard (34 wickets) played key roles in St Cross Symondians II’s promotion – they were SPL3 runners-up – and win awards alongside Fair Oak wicketkeeper Richard Featherstone.
