Match report
Pleased to report a great win by 108 runs against the Dills at the glorious Sheffield Park.
The Grannies cc - 244- 8 (all out)
Armadillos CC - 136-9 (all out)
Man of Match performance from O Simpson with a 5-fer and conceding a miserly 12 off his 8 overs. Special mentions to H.Taylor for a battling 70* on a pitch that did all sorts and to J.Lloyd for a great opneing spell that deserved more than just the 2 wickets.
A great all round performance!
Dills a fun and gracious opposition as ever.

How to get there
It lies midway between East Grinstead and Lewes, 5 miles north west of Uckfield, on the east side of the A275 (between A272 and A22).
Use the main entrance off the A275, signed Sheffield Park and Garden. Follow the sign to the visitors car park. Continue past the car park through the two sets of wooden gates. If the gates are locked the number for the padlocks is 1111.
Once through the bottom gate, follow the track around to the left and you will see the signs marked "Armadillos CC Car Park". Please park within the signs; you should not park beyond the final sign stating that parking is not allowed beyond that point. You may however drive up to the pavilion to drop off any equipment, but must then return to the designated car park straight away. You will see the ground (and the pavilion) through the trees from the car park. The ground is surrounded by a deer fence but the gates through it will be unlocked.
