Jason Roy and England lift the World Cup

What a day and what a weekend. Simply wonderful to see our very own Jason Roy and the England team win the World Cup in a Final which will go down in history and the annals of the game.

Whilst 300 or so International cricketers have played at the Priory, and many of those have played for us, only two have come through the club's ranks from the ages of 9 or 10. One is a World Cup winner and the other, Walter Read, has his name on the Ashes urn itself.

I bet no other club in the World can equal or beat that.

Numerous Priory members were at Lord's to cheer Jason and England on. Just a pity we couldn't get on the pitch to get a photo from the front.

Saturday at the Priory was just as good but more of that shortly.
