But to me it’s a sanctuary
Tumblr media
Saturday saw me take a short journey towards Pateley Bridge to visit one of those little gems of a ground – Glasshouses Cricket Club.
Now, those that follow cricket and especially Yorkshire cricket may recall that this club was in the news just before the start of the 2023 season. They were struggling to get a team together – almost a perfect storm of location, change in attitudes to playing village cricket and a good few other factors.
Stories in The Stray Ferret, Yorkshire Post and Cricket Yorkshire brought their existential fight to the attention of a larger audience and thankfully players responded, allowing the Theakston Nidderdale Division Five club to register a team and take part in this summer’s campaign.
I could regurgitate a list of facts about the club…one of the founding members of the Nidderdale league in 1894…won the league title 19 times…okay, I’ll stop [but if you want to read more in-depth articles about this club and many others, then hop across to John Fuller’s Cricket Yorkshire website – Glasshouses also feature in his first book ‘All Wickets Great and Small’]...okay, I'll really stop now!
Departing from the usual match report style that I do [probably badly], I’ll simply tell you that this game was pretty one-sided, with the visitors - West Tanfield second eleven batting first and reaching 210 for eight in their allotted 40 overs.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
In response Glasshouses struggled to get runs and by the 18th over they had been bowled out for just 76 – their opponents winning the game by a healthy 134 runs.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
But that tells just one aspect of the story of the day, and if I am being honest wasn’t the most important part either – well not to me at least.
Rewinding a little
I arrived early for the 12:30pm start and was greeted by a smiling Ken who showed me down to the ground, offered to open the clubhouse, and stood with me chatting for a good while.
Ken has been living next to the ground since 1960 and got involved pretty much straight away. Apart from a brief two-year break, he has been groundsman ever since, and when needed the 80-year-old has also picked up a bat and played for the club.
Tumblr media
He played last season, but the call for players through the media this season has been successful enough to raise an eleven, which means he hasn’t been called upon this campaign (although I believe he has stepped in for another team).
I’m in awe of people like Ken; devoted club members who work diligently year-in, year-out and are the pillars of grassroots clubs. Unfortunately, they rarely get the recognition they deserve from the outside world.
And now the end is near
Saturday was the final day of Theakston Nidderdale games in all leagues, and I was hoping against hope the good weather that we’ve experienced over the past few weeks would hold on for just a few more days…but alas, we had a return to typical UK September cricket weather.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It was cold, grey and there was a constant, almost imperceptible drizzle floating around on the crosswinds. A nightmare for photographers who end up constantly cleaning the fine mist off the front glass of their lenses.
Despite the weather, there was a light-hearted jovial feeling between the two sets of players and smiles during different passages of play – the sort of atmosphere that adds to the day rather than detracts from it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
That’s not to say there wasn’t anything to play for – I believe that West Tanfield had already secured the runners-up spot in the league, but Glasshouses needed some points to secure third [spoiler alert – they did].
There was the added drama of a dropped catch that resulted in a dislocated finger and an unscheduled trip to Ripon A&E for one Glasshouses player…I wish him a speedy recovery!
Tumblr media
The last time I was at this ground was in the 2018 season and as I recall it was a wonderful summer’s day, with few clouds and a cooling breeze.
Yorkshire is spoilt for choices when it comes to picturesque cricket grounds, set in the rolling hills of the dales and moors. If I had to pin my colours to a particular mast, then Blubberhouses would get my vote as a favourite ground for Cricket…but it is pushed so, so hard by Glasshouses and a couple of others.
Tumblr media
Let’s make no bones about this…the setting is pretty amazing and the views from the boundary rope are spectacular, however, as the cold grey skies of September cried a fine mist of tears, the peaks of the hills were obscured, and the valley was covered in a soft hazy grey blanket.
All very atmospheric.
When you draw up your own list of grounds to visit, you must put this cricket club on that list. I’m not going to argue with you…just do it!
The Future
The appeal for players in February was loud and worked this season, and for that, I and many others are truly grateful.
What I do worry about, and this isn’t just for Glasshouses, is that at a time when the game at grassroots is changing; cost of living going through the roof; players being more mobile; the draw of other sports; and the nature of league and cup games taking up whole days and/or weekends, competing for time and putting more stress on the work/family balance…one season, the call for players will fail and clubs will fold.
It's sad to see this happening and I hope that the 2024 league season will see Glasshouses get at least a starting eleven without the need for the same call to arms. I for one will be back to cover one of their games next summer.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Final thoughts on my latest trip to this small village cricket club, situated down the bottom of a cul de sac: I could have gone and covered one of the games where teams were vying for promotion, to win league titles, or avoid relegation, but I didn’t and I’m so glad that I chose to finish this grassroots cricket season at a Theakston Nidderdale Division five game – a game that truly embodied what grassroots cricket is all about.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Addendum
Glasshouses may have finished their league campaign, but they are having one final friendly game this coming weekend…maybe you could pop down, enjoy the game and take in those breathtaking views. You know you want to!

Have the book on kindle so quickly swiping through, some favourite bits -
She won a cross country race qualifying for the next round right after a training session one day. Even though she was only there to watch her brother and got dragged in bc a girl hadn't shown up.
Reasons she didn't choose other sports = Hockey- didn't like the skirts (relaye veffy, hard relate). Cross Country - boring to just run. Swimming - boring to swim end to end. Cricket - too slow on the action

Speaks a LOT about her love for David Beckham growing up.
Fullbacks she hates playing against in order = lucy bronze, ona battle, giulia gwinn.
Couldn't play in a final with her grassroots team bc she got a red card in the Semis (very adamant it was a yellow not a red) and they lost the final. First setback that upset her.
Top 3 ways to feel better in order - holiday (we know beth...we know), TV, food.

Why Football is Not Famous in India
Tumblr media
India is a country known for its diverse culture, traditions, and a deep-rooted passion for sports. However, when it comes to football, a sport that enjoys immense global popularity, it hasn’t reached the same level of fame and recognition in India. Several factors contribute to the limited popularity of football in the country.
Cricket Dominance: Cricket has long been the dominant sport in India. The country’s obsession with cricket, driven by historical successes and an unending stream of cricketing idols, has left little room for other sports to flourish. The Indian Premier League (IPL) and the Indian national cricket team’s successes have only cemented cricket’s dominance in the sports landscape.
Lack of Infrastructure: Football requires significant investment in infrastructure, including stadiums, training facilities, and coaching academies. While cricket enjoys a well-developed infrastructure, football in India has struggled with inadequate facilities and poorly-maintained pitches, making it challenging for talent to thrive.
Limited Funding: In comparison to cricket, football in India receives limited funding. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is one of the wealthiest sports bodies globally, while the All India Football Federation (AIFF) faces financial constraints, which affects the development and promotion of the sport.
Scarcity of Role Models: Cricket in India boasts a plethora of iconic figures who serve as role models for aspiring athletes. Football, on the other hand, lacks such figures, which makes it harder for young talent to envision a successful career in the sport.
International Performance: The Indian national football team has struggled on the international stage, which has had a dampening effect on the sport’s popularity. Unlike cricket, where India has excelled in both the One Day and Test formats, football hasn’t experienced similar success, leading to a lack of public interest and investment.
Regional Differences: India’s vast regional diversity plays a role in the varying levels of popularity of football. While some regions, like West Bengal, Kerala, and Goa, have a strong football culture, other parts of the country remain relatively indifferent to the sport.
Lack of Grassroots Development: Grassroots development is crucial for nurturing young talent. Unfortunately, football in India has struggled to establish an effective grassroots system that can identify and develop promising players from a young age.
Lack of Marketing and Promotion: While the Indian Premier League (IPL) has set the gold standard for marketing and promotion, football leagues in India have not been as successful in this regard. A lack of effective promotion has hindered the growth of football as a spectator sport.
Competition from Other Sports: In addition to cricket, India has a thriving kabaddi league and a burgeoning interest in badminton and wrestling, which further reduces football’s share of the sporting audience.
Despite these challenges, there has been some growth in football’s popularity in India in recent years. The Indian Super League (ISL) has brought attention to the sport, and with continued investment, grassroots development, and a growing interest in European leagues, football may eventually see a rise in fame in India. However, it will likely take time and sustained effort to overcome the formidable dominance of cricket and other sporting interests in the country.

Is it just different middle class demographics though? Cos cricket is massively disproportionately played by wealty people / private schoolers. A lot of guardian-recognised diversity is just different middle class demographics with roughly the same politics, outlook etc it's miles off genuinely diverse grassroots sports like boxing or football (both derided)

I want to get my hopes up about Kate’s start next year, but I guess it depends if/when she has a new private secretary in place? On the other hand there are things she can do, like some more information about the royal foundation partnering with Olena Zelenska, or just more about her early years work. Righty now there’s just so many meetings about it. I also want both William and Kate to diversify their engagements a bit more and not just focus all their time on mental health, early years, and environment. Those three things are huge and can mean different things for different people, but idk, sometimes I feel like they leave out things that they could do because Kate wants to do early years stuff (which is important, I’m not trying to minimize it). I’d love to see her do something with charities connected to the Irish Guards, or rugby accessibility for girls in school.
https://inews.co.uk/news/stark-figures-girls-access-football-rugby-cricket-1779320
(Also for William to actually visit girl’s and women’s grassroots football, and special team’s football. It’s all well and good to wish the national team good luck and drag yourself to one match in over 15 years, but he should also show up to the smaller things that matter almost more. Attend the women’s FA Cup Final)
I'm battling flu and there are so many words here I have to be honest I am not sure I fully understood it. But essentially I agree. I'm intrigued by the Private Secretary situation because we haven't officially been informed she's stepped down and also we don't know who the new one is or even if they have a new one.
I want to see more regular work as a key area to focus on going foward. I would also, like you, like to see a bigger range. I'm happy for Kate to do 6 early years-related, Royal Foundation-linked engagements in one month, as long as she also does engagements with mental health, and the outdoors, and art, and visiting communities. I loved your idea of rugby accessibility for girls in school - she could visit school's which have interesting approaches to sport or even ones which promote a healthy mindset through physical activity or being outside!

Hakuin returned home, took up residence in the temple, and attended his ailing father. Even though the temple was in a terrible condition and sited in the centre of a bustling village, Hakuin carried on a version of the retreat schedule he had followed when he was up on the mountain. He describes in his autobiography how every night he would adopt the zazen position, then instruct one of the temple boys to wrap a futon around him and tie it on with a rope to keep him in an upright position. He would sit tied up in meditation right through to morning.
It seems that it was during this time that Hakuin worked out a way to combine the teachings of Hakuyushi with his Zen koan study. Gradually word got out about the earnest and deeply realised monk in the tiny temple, and students started to appear – not only the local villagers who began to enquire about Zen, but also male and female monastics from further afield. Hakuin began to teach, somewhat reluctantly, as he felt his own practice wasn’t yet complete.
And then one night, in 1726, when he was 41 years old and had been resident at Shoinji for a decade, he sat studying the Lotus Sutra, perhaps the most venerated Buddhist text in Japan. A cricket started to shrill in the foundations of the temple and, as he heard this noise, the whole universe opened up for him. He let out an involuntary shout and began to weep. From this time on Hakuin lived in a state of complete liberation, and for the next 40 years he devoted himself to his students. This teaching effort included sanzen (one-to-one interviews), as well as lecturing to increasingly large groups. He also wrote many books on Zen.
Before long the tiny temple was filled with Zen students. Hakuin didn’t move to larger premises; instead, he began to gather the overflowing monks into groups of three, and sent them off into the surrounding countryside. These monks would live in old shrines, fishermen’s huts, under trees – anywhere they could find shelter. Eventually it reached a point where the whole landscape was a kind of monastery without walls.
We have an account from a famous poet, Takatsuki Rikei, who came to visit Hakuin in 1753. Rikei describes how there were about 150 monastic students, of whom ten lived in the temple. The other 140 would come in at different times during the day for their sanzen and then return to their dwellings. This grassroots, spontaneous dharma centre was unique. Nothing quite like it has happened since.
-- Skinner Julian Daizan, Practical Zen

George Greaves Cup Final
Monday 17th July 2023 and I arrived at the ground slightly late, missing the first five overs...but I had just come from another shoot and it was unavoidable.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Harrogate & District Amateur Evening League George Greaves Cup final was being played at Ripley Cricket Club - a really nice location bathed in the warm evening's summer sun.
North Stainley were batting and ticking along quite nicely, at that point, an average of just under one run per ball.
There was a really good crowd gathered to watch the game, the wonderful smell of the BBQ, and what appeared to be two evenly match teams.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I moved around the boundary rope, trying to gather a set of shots that captured as many of the players as I could while the light was good - conscious that the sun would soon disappear behind the tall trees and Ripley Castle.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
As the final five overs were played, North Stainley upped the run rate and pushed the score close to 150, putting the pressure on their opponents Goldsborough.
A short innings break and Connor and I downed a cool can of Sprite (other drinks are available) and salt and vinegar crinkly crisps bought in the club house to help stave off pangs of hunger (we hadn't had dinner at that point).
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Goldsborough started slowly and the game seemed to be swinging heavily in their opponents favour. They really seemed to be struggling to put the runs on the board, with the North Stainley bowlers and fielders restricting the ability of the batters to reach the boundaries.
From memory, with about five overs to go, Goldsborough were 70 or so runs short of their target and appeared to be about to lose the final.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then...a massive six was hit that seemed to kick-start a charge.
Could they do this? Where there enough overs left to allow Goldsborough to overhaul the 143 target set?
Boundaries started to come...their total rose significantly and by the final ball of the 19th over, Goldsborough needed 16 runs.
The final ball of the over was delivered and...a no ball! The ball was bowled again and was duly dispatched for four! This set up an intriguing final over.
The first two of the over were dot balls...raising the tension even more. Then a single...followed by a massive six and then the batters ran three.
Final ball of the game with the scores tied and Goldsborough had to either get a run on the board or avoid losing a wicket to win the game. North Stainley fielders closed in with all their fielders ringed around the batter on strike.
Down came the bowler, a good delivery...and...the batter left it to bounce through to the wicket keeper. There was a collective roar from the Goldsborough supporters and players - they had won the cup having lost fewer wickets.
The slimmest of margins...but what a game!
Tumblr media
Well done to both teams!
P.S. Why the photo of the geese? They flew low over the ground during the first innings making a real racket! But great to see!
