On Friday 2 October, at Lord's, we celebrated the 2026 season by announcing the winners of our annual player awards across our men's, women's and disability squads.
At a lunch in the Nursery Pavilion, members, sponsors, and staff got the chance to celebrate the summer's successes. Both our Men’s and Women's side celebrated their successes in their respective Metro Bank One-Day Cup campaigns! During the afternoon, we also showed our thanks to outgoing Director of Cricket Alan Coleman.
Congratulations to all of our award winners and nominees. Everyone across the Club made 2026 a year to remember!
