The club’s top individual performers were honoured at the event which took place at Waltham Windmill Golf Club.

Caistor’s First XI finished third in the Premier Division as they narrowly failed to defend their league title, while there were some bright spots for the Second XI during a tough season in Division Two.

Danny Bevis was a double award winner, being named the First XI Player’s Player of the Year as well as winning the Bugsy Blast Trophy for most sixes.

Ollie Barrick also picked up two prizes with the Second XI batting award, also with an average of 32, and Most Improved Player (Under 21) honour.

Dominic Wooley was voted the Seconds’ player of the year by his team-mates, while Mathew Blackburn won the side’s bowling award after taking 23 wickets at 28.
