For
his demolition job with sixes on Chobhams' pavilion roof, Jay Walliker receives the
"Sir Alfred McAlpine" award: a bag of broken slates |
|
Dave Lamb receives a personalised
t-shirt on behalf of his mate kev and his string of unerring choices when it comes to the
fairer sex. See Daves' face |

|
For services rendered to the
club in his role as cultural ambassador to the community, Dazza receives the "Sir Les
Patterson" award. |
Matt and Tim both got
"one in the eye" this year, thus they received joint Royal Society for the
Promotion of Cruelty to Eyebrows & Mutilated Eyebrow Club membership in one go |
|
A
beutifully-crafted ten-inch wide bat of plasterboard was presented to Dan Eldridge as the
"Millennium Dome Award" for questionable judgement - i.e
letting the ball hit his stumps. |
President Peter Lamb lasted as
good as anyone on tour, thus earning the "Oldest Swinger In Town" award - not
bad considering he's wearing Adie Barrett's cap |
|
A door in the pavilion had
suffered damage, and Howard was going to get to the bottom of it. Tims' handiwork enabled
some emergency repairs to be done |
The "Quack Quack Oops"
award (most ducks) went to Chris Greathead (not available). Runners-up Ben Pudney &
Dan Eldridge collect theirs instead |
|
Adie
Barrett won the "You're Shit - AARRGGHH!!" award for the worst
over (in his case 25), which occurred on tour. The footage on the 2000
tour video features commentary by one J. Walliker |
Mike Hills couldn't make the
Awards Evening so his well-deserved Gaisford Improvers Award was collected by Jason
Stephens on his behalf |
|
For the second time, Kev was
substituted. In this case Craig Weston collected the Fielding award |

Batting award you must bat half the available innings in a season. Sadly, Jay Walliker was
one short, but finished the season with an average of over 50! A glass tankard was his
prize |
|
The Hull Batting Trophy was more keenly
contested in 2000 than for a while, however it finally went to Tim Lamb for the third year
running. |
Forget the batting, Jay
Walliker stepped up yet again to receive the Elson Bowling Trophy. Well judged too: he
reached minimum qualification by three balls |
|

limited edition cut-glass book from the Lords' 100th test in 2000, presented to Adie
Barrett in recognition of his work for the club |
|
The
last award of the night: at the end of the 2000 season Tim stepped down after three good
years as Captain. During his tenure WECC lost only two games more than they won |
