Bath Evening Chronicle Report, dated 16 September 2006
Fourteen-year-old Charlie Mackenzie was the star of the Bathford Cricket Club's awards night, held recently in Bathford. The young opening bat took the awards for both second team player of the year and second team performance of the year, the latter of these for a superb 95 against local rivals Beanacre.
For the first team, Andrew Murray won the player of the year, with veteran all-rounder Steve Ball taking performance of the year.
Awards were also given to the rising stars of Bathford's youth teams, with medals presented to players from the under 9s, under 11s and under 15s.
A special presentation was also made to club coach Paul Merrett in recognition of the work with the junior teams.
Finally, the prestigious Clubman of the Year award went to Carlos Aguera for his ongoing work as player, club secretary and coach.

Last season was a momentous one for Bathford CC, as for the first time we ran junior teams, in each of the U9, U11 and U15 age groups, as well as the 2 established senior league teams.
The U9 team competed in local friendlies and tournaments, whilst the other junior teams competed in the Bath leagues.
This was a huge undertaking for a club our size and shows the growth of Bathford as a cricket club and almost as importantly, a social club.
