Captains and Vice Captains
Cameron Baldock
Saturday Captain
My name is Cameron Baldock and I am the Saturday Captain at Ferring Cricket Club for the 2021 season. I have been a player at Ferring for around 10 years having initially started playing for the club from about the age of 17 or 18. In recent years I have become one of the Club Welfare Officers, a role I’ve held for the past 4 years or so. In terms of playing I have done a bit of everything, having previously been a bowler, however now I am more often played as a batsmen or wicket keeper. It is my aim for the Saturday side to play friendly but competitive cricket in an entertaining way giving all players the opportunity to be involved and improve their cricketing skills.
Alex King
Saturday Vice Captain
Alex has connected with the club since playing for the President's XI in the mid/late 90's. He is a right handed batsman, right arm off-spin bowler and started playing regularly for Ferring in 2012. His father, Tony, started the family connection back in 1964.
Joe Binns
Sunday Captain
Joining the club in 2021 and looking to get back into playing regular cricket after the pandemic lockdown, Joe was warmly welcomed and immediately made to feel part of the Ferring CC community. A part-time off spinner, but predominately a batsman, Joe is an advocate of friendly, yet competitive, cricket. Ensuring that the club plays in an inclusive and enjoyable way is essential, as is a pint at the Henty afterwards!
Jake Awde
Sunday Vice Captain
Jake joined Ferring Cricket Club in 2014 at the age of 9 after a free trial, and has never looked back. He has loved playing here at Ferring, working his way up through the colts, and now playing full time for both adult teams. Having got some adult captaincy experience in the Sussex Slam competition, and friendlies last season, the 2023 season will be my first time taking on an official role, making Jake the club’s youngest ever vice captain at the age of 18.
He is also very involved in helping with our fantastic colts section for the last couple of years, hoping to play a role in developing some future star players. Mostly known for his bowling, opening more often than not, however can bat a bit if required! We're all very excited for the season ahead, where we hope to play competitive cricket, but most importantly want everyone to have fun and feel they’ve played a role in the game.
