Stratfield Turgis and Hartley Wespall Cricket Club sadly record the death of Jim Berry.
Before coming to live in Bramley in 1972 and joining Stratfield Turgis, Jim clocked up an amazing number of matches (and wickets) for Teddington CC, Claygate CC, Eastwick Park CC and St Margaretsbury CC.
Jim gave over forty years of service to Stratfield Turgis CC, firstly as a player and umpire, treasurer and scorer thereafter.
These were important years for the club - covering amalgamation with Tylehurst St George CC, entry into the Berkshire League and establishment of our ground lease.
He combined these duties with that of club umpire until ill helath saw Jim retire to the scorer's bench.
We extend our deep sympathies to Jim's wife Joan and family.
