MOCC President's Day

The sun shone, the drinks flowed and some great cricket was played in the annual Club President’s Day last Sunday. Club President, Gavin Harper, fielded an impressive XI against an equally strong club team drawn from the 1st and 2nd XIs in a highly entertaining match which saw the President’s XI win by a narrow margin of 10 runs. The match also served as a tribute to MOCC’s late Chairman, Chris Nicolle, who we sadly lost late last year. Current Chairman, John Watkins, made a moving speech about the huge contribution Chris made to the Club over his years as Chairman, and presented Monica with an MOCC ‘Baggy Green’ commemorating Chris’ famous appearance for the 2nd XI.
