Brave tale Members of Clayton-ler


Dale Women's Institute were given a fresh insight into the story'Of Grace Darling by a talk entitled "Amazing Grace" by Mrs Barbara Rid­


ing,She told how a boat trip from Seahouses to the Farne Islands with her husband in 1988 aroused her interest in the heroine and she carried out research to discover all the stories were true. Grace was a godfearing


Cricket Club members trav­ elled to neighbours and fierce rivals Waddington. One or two of the players were slightly subdued after a team bonding session which took place on Saturday evening. This took the form of a bar­ becue, hosted by Grindleton s all-rounder Taylor and, as well as consuming copious quantities of food and drink, the players were entertained by local fire eater Anthony


Ollerenshaw.' Grindleton's skipper


Crossland won the toss and after due consideration decided to field first. The players took to the field rather slowly, but soon got stuck into the task at hand. Opening bowlers Leach and Cherry put the home-side under extreme pressure. Every run had to be earned. The pressure paid off when Leach had Vaughton caught behind shortly after Stott


'was run out, to leave the home-side at 31 for two after


eight overs. Grindleton's skipper


brought Taylor and Simon Cherry into the attack. This


proved to be a shrewd move by Crossland, as the runs dried up and the wickets began to tumble. At 65 for seven, after 26 overs, Gnndle- ton were in the box seat. Unfortunately for Grindle­ ton, Waddington's tail began to wag. Wilde (20) and C. Hopcroft (33.) shared an eighth-wicket partnership ol 51. Crossland brought Ainsworth and Hutchinson


on to bowl, in order to stem the tide, but a flurry of runs saw the home side finish all


out for 156. After a welcome rest lor


tea Grindleton took to the crease. Waddington were determined to make it diffi­ cult for Grindleton to score freely. The opening bowlers, Stott and Parsons, concen­ trated on line and length and after 15 overs Grindleton were struggling atl5 for one. Ainsworth (23) and Leach (26) slowly began to assert themselves on the bowlers, sharing a stand of 44 but, in the space of two overs, Dray- cott had sent them both back to the pavilion. Crossland (25) and Hutchinson (23) tried to wrest control back for Grindleton, but always strug­ gled against the tight bowling of the Waddington attack. When Crossland was dis­ missed, Grindleton required 65 off the las t six overs. Despite the best efforts of Hutchinson and Taylor (z.3 n.o.) it was a bridge too far and the visitors fell short by 14 runs, finishing on 143 for


five.
