FRIDAY night saw 106 members attend the Wembdon Cricket Club annual dinner and awards evening.

It was a fabulous evening with great food from Greenway Farm before a casino theme provided entertainment later on.

The club celebrated a hugely successful season which saw promotion for the 2nd XI, league victory for the Sunday XI, and the 4th XI's invincible title-winning season in Division 7.
