NatWest CommunityForce Winners
Burghley Park Cricket Club, in Stamford, Lincolnshire, has seen a big transformation over the past couple of years. From one Saturday 1st XI which was struggling to field a side in the 2009 season the Club can now boast a Huntingdonshire Division 2 winning 1st XI, a Sunday Friendly XI and three junior teams at U9, U15 and U17 age groups.
Off the back of the junior success the Burghley Park have been awarded ClubMark accreditation at the recent Huntingdonshire Cricket Board meeting, a great accolade for the hard work and commitment that has gone into the Club in the last 2 years. At the recent NatWest OSCAs they picked up the Huntingdonshire OSCA for their Club Force day, with ex England fast bowler Dean Headley coming along to lend a hand earlier in the season it was a fantastic day preparing the ground for what proved to be a fantastic season.

mans shed, Club Captain Chris Meadows would like to thank everyone that voted for
