That included three five-wicket hauls, best figures of 5-12 and a bowling average of a mere 9.06.

But it was Alex Roe who won the batsman-of-the-year award as he racked up 349 runs across the campaign.

Clubperson-of-the-year went to Phil Stanford for his groundwork at Sheldwich Lees, as well as being instrumental in arranging the raffle, for which the prizes - which included two tickets to Lord’s to watch an England Test match, two tickets to watch Arsenal versus Ipswich in the Premier League on Friday, December 27 and a meat hamper worth £200 - were won on the evening.

Saturday skipper Sam Evans was crowned fielder-of-the-year for his eight catches and one stumping.

The Saturday and Sunday sides both finished third-bottom in the Kent League Division 10 Shepherd and the Kent Village League 3 West division.
