Club President Keith Stockbridge

Sat, 19 Nov 2022 15:40:00 +0000

It is with great sadness that Orpington Cricket Club announce the passing of our club President, Keith Stockbridge

Keith was a massive personality around our club for many years and will be sorely missed.

Our thoughts and sympathies are with his family at this difficult time

Further to the sad news of the passing of our Club President, Keith ‘Stockers’ Stockbridge, his family have released some details for the funeral which will be held on Friday, 16th December at 1230pm. The service will be conducted at Kemnal Park Cemetary (A20 Sidcup Bypass).

Keith's wake will be held at the Chelsfield Pub from 130pm, please join family and friends to give Stockers the send off he deserves.

Below is a memory sent in by an OCC stelwart in Russ May who fondly remembers playing under Stockers and has kindly sent in some touching words.

My first ever game for Orpington was under the Captaincy of ‘Stockers’ in a Buffs team way back in the eighties.

That first meeting was the beginning of a cricketing friendship within OCC and showed Keith’s undaunted enthusiasm for the game and for the club he loved.

Finally it would be very remiss of me not to mention his famous score of 161 against RACS.

Well Batted Stockers you’ll always be remembered,

Sincerely, Russ May.

Paul Hemple Sadly Passes

Wed, 09 Nov 2022 19:44:00 +0000

Some more very sad news from OCC.
Members might remember the midweek games against Limpsfield which Paul organised and some may have played with him when he captained the Orpington teams that featured in the Chris Hora memorial matches against Whitstable and Gravesend in 2012 and 2013.
Always highly competitive as a Captain, he made a huge contribution to the club and was a pioneer in bringing through Colts to the senior teams.
OCC sends their condolences to Paul’s wife Sue, daughter Katherine, brother Mike and sister-in-law Rachel and wider friends and family.

Orpington Cricket Club is delighted to announce that our new scoreboard on the bottom plateau has been installed!

As many of you will know, our previous scoreboard had been in place since the 1990s.

The funding for the new scoreboard has come entirely from individual donations from the Orpington Cricket Club Family.

Once current restrictions have been lifted sufficiently to allow us to do it justice in traditional OCC style, we intend to hold a formal scoreboard opening ceremony, including unveiling a commemorative plaque detailing a list of all donors.

We thought that you would like to see some before, during and after pictures of the installation, as taken by our resident photographer David 'Daniella Langford' Bailey.

Finally, our thanks go to Electronic Scoreboards Ltd (scoreboard) and P&I Protections (security shutter) for their professionalism and efficient installation, particularly given that in true cricket season style, it rained all day whilst they were on site!

Some bad news - but news we were unfortunately expecting.

Following conversations with the KCL, Orpington Cricket Club has decided to suspend all future training sessions with immediate effect until further notice.

We have a duty of care to all our members and their welfare should be put ahead of anything else.

Obviously the situation is fluid (and a complete contrast to what was told yesterday), but at this stage we do not know when training will resume and if the cricket season will start on time as expected.

In the meantime please look after yourself, and hopefully we can get back to playing cricket soon.
