34 CLUBs and sOCieTies Bridge TrUsT CriCKeT CLUB The Cricket Club has had two very good years. On the back of winning the league and gaining promotion in 2013 the 1st X1 had another successful season under Mandeep sehmi with the team finishing mid table. several new members joined the team and two of them in particular made a big impression. ambries Husain and amir singh both bowled excellently throughout the season but dan viles ended the season with the best bowling figures taking 640 away at Olton. simon Cross was once again the leading batsman averaging over 40. This is a remarkable achievement as he is also the clubs longest serving player having joined in 1989. Pavandeep sehmi scored the only century 108 not out away at solihull. The 2nd X1 team did even better. They too won their League in 2013 and after promotion proceeded to win their new league in 2014 under the captaincy of waqas Bahti. in fact they remain unbeaten since mid-2013. Both teams will be looking to progress the club forward in 2015. we are anxious to increase membership. so cricketers if you would like to join the club please email Usman Choudhry 1st team captain at tonyseekersagents.com Sixth Form Students in Mock Election Battle The new sixth form centre was the venue for much political debate recently in the lead up to the May 7th general election. The sixth form students held their own mock election with five candidates representing the five main political parties. Candidates were asked to prepare short political speeches to highlight to the electorate why they should vote for their particular party in the mock election. at a packed caf area in the sixth form centre the hustings took place and the candidates presented to their fellow students before receiving questions about their partys manifestoes. This was all done in good humour and was a very good experience both for the candidates and their political teams who had researched and prepared for the election debates. One candidate who represented a party said that she had had no interest in politics before this mock election but decided to find out about her adopted party. she now knew much more about the strengths and weaknesses of its policies. well done to all of the candidates who stood for election and the votes cast can be seen below Mock general election result on May 7th 2015 in the sixth form centre. 128 votes cast abdi ige Conservative Party 31 emdadul ali Labour Party 30 Tanya Tom UKiP 23 gurdeep Mall green Party 20 zishan Haider Liberal democrats 14 spoilt papers 10 34 The Cricket Club has had two very good years.
