Wellington were in some bother when the final game of the season was abandoned at Chard on Sunday as heavy rain swept in and flooded the square.

Chard had opted to bat on winning the toss and lost a wicket almost immediately as Adrian Lee bowled Clancy off of his pad as it deflected onto the stumps. Richard Short, playing his first game for exactly a year, bowled tidily at times, but Wellington were suffering at the hands of N.Crew who made a sparkling 73 before being well caught by Dan Addicott who flung himself far forward at square leg to remove a real dangerman.

This was off of Paul Short, who together with Rob Moysey, got through a mighty workload on the day. Between them they bowled 35 overs as Wellington sent down 48 by the time that the last wicket was taken.

A fifth win out of six was enough to give Wellington the Three Counties League Division Two title in their first season in the competition.

Honiton put Wellington into bat on a cool, showery day and after a delayed start Rupert Green, who has had a good debut season for the Red and Blacks, was launching into anything remotely off line or short. He hit two huge sixes in his knock of 80 that set the foundation for the Wellington total.

Stuart Currall added 76 for the third wicket with Green and these runs were scored at the right tempo as far as Wellington were concerned. But with the weather always threatening to wash the game out it was a relief that the game was able to be concluded with having to ‘engineer’ a result.

Wellington had to work for their second win of the weekend when Somerset League Division Three side Langport made them have some uneasy moments with the bat, but in the end the resilient qualities of Rob Moysey saw them home by four wickets.

On a scorching day Langport opted to bat first and were never at ease against Adrian Lee and Andy Mitchell who bowled ten overs between them for only 16 runs going against the bowlers.
Strang was first to go as he planted a long-hop straight into the hands of Alec Short at mid-wicket from Chris Kitto.
Woolston, who scored heavily at Wellington back in June, was farcically run out as neither he or his partner called and both were left stranded.

On Saturday the team travelled to Weston-Super-Mare to take on a composite Uphill Castle side that was composed of players drawn from their 2nd and 3rd XIs.

Wellington opted to bat first and Rob Moysey and Stuart Currall gave the Red and Blacks a great start with a stand of 69 for the first wicket.It was ended when Moysey planted one into the hands of Simms who was waiting just behind square, he made 29.

Paul Short joined Currall and pushed the score onto 121 before Short (19)offered a return catch to leg-spinner Baxter, one of four victims for this bowler.Currall made it to 75 before spearing one up into the air and keeper Davidson, the one Uphill 1st teamer to play on the day, made the catch.
