CRICKET CLUB
Hyde CC is based on Werneth Low Road in Greater Manchester and their
first team currently competes in the ECB Premier League. They are led by
the team of President Ian White and Chair Keith Duffy and the club is
progressing well under their guidance.
Their first tea has made a fine start to their league
campaign this time around, having won four of their first
five matches with the other fixture being cancelled. This
sees them sitting top of the table with 107 points on the
board.
This should provide them with the perfect platform
from which to go on and put together a successful league
campaign. As long as they are able to retain their current
group of players they should be in with a good chance of
mounting a serious title challenge.
Hyde is not a club to focus solely upon their senior
section however and this is reflected by the fact that they
also have a number of youth sides in place. These teams
look to provide young players from the local area with
an opportunity to play the game in a safe and enjoyable

environment whilst helping them to reach their full
potential.
It is important for any club looking to be successful
over a sustained period of time to be able to produce
their own talent and this is an area they appear to have
covered. It will certainly be exciting to see how their
youngsters can progress in the coming years.
In order to help ensure that they enjoy a smooth
transition into the senior game they also run a number
of additional sides. This allows them to gain experience
of adult level cricket even if they are not yet considered
ready for first team action which can be an important
step in the development process.
Another benefit of having extra sides is that it allows
the first XI to benefit from far greater strength in depth.
If they are ever left short on numbers through injury or
work commitments they have the option of calling up
replacements with a limited amount of disruption.
There is much to admire about the fine set up that
Hyde currently has in place and this is being reflected
in the results they are achieving on the field. If they
continue in the same manner they should be able to look
forwards to a bright and successful future.
