YOUTH CLUB NEEDED
MEMBERS of the Parish Council canvassed the
opinions of the students in Year 9 and 10 at the
Tarporley High School, to ascertain what facilities
the young people in Tarporley wanted to develop.
It was important to hear from them and not
assume that we knew what they required. It is
vital that our young citizens feel part of the village
community and contribute to its development.
The information that the students provided
focused on a number of important themes;
Transport; Entertainment; Sports Facilities and
somewhere warm and safe to meet.
The Parish Council is working to develop better
transport links for both the young people and
for other members of the village community.
Transport is the key to developing some of the
other ideas from the students.
Improvements in regular transport would allow
both young and not so young to access the
facilities at the ‘Life-Style’ Centre in Winsford.
There is also the possibility of providing transport
to specific events and venues, which would mean
other entertainment and sports facilities, would
also be more readily available.
In attempting to provide, ‘somewhere warm and
safe to meet’, the Parish Council is looking to
find suitable premises where a Youth Club might
be established.The intention is not to compete
with existing organisations, but to complement
what has already been established. It is hoped
that the students will form a steering group to
be fully involved in the management of such a
club and other sporting, social and community
developments.
Councillors and other members of the Tarporley
Community will be meeting again with the
students to discuss the next steps. We are
encouraged by the mature attitude of the young
people who attend the high school and look
forward to some exciting developments, led by
the young people themselves.

IN CLIMAX
TO SEASON
TARPORLEY Vics First Team is still clinging
on to third position of the Cheshire Building
Society Cheshire League Division Two.
With three wins, one defeat and a draw to
their credit recently Tarporley Vics would
have hoped to ease the pressure from the
chasing pack however our fellow contenders
have been playing twice a week to ease their
fixture congestion and Warrington Town and
The 2009 matchday squad

Golbourne have now overtaken Tarporley Vics.
The excellent run of results at home has
been the mainstay of the Vics’ season to
date. The return of Al Taylor from injury
and the goal scoring prowess of defensive
midfielder Al Rowntree have been the keys to
success. Al Rowntree managed to score on
three successive home matches, all of which
resulted in victories. This fact is all the more
remarkable as these are the first goals Al has
scored at Cheshire League level!
With only seven games left to play this season
the team will have to secure seven victories
to guarantee promotion, although a “top four”
position is the target set for the First Team this
year, anything else is a bonus.
The Reserves have also enjoyed a good run
of form and have won their last two games
defeating more experienced opponents. They
now sit in an excellent fourth position in the
Crewe & District League and they can also
look forward to two Cup Semi-Finals in April.
The A.J. Trophy Quarter Final win over Bentley
F.C. was the pick of the Cup results to date,
and this was achieved with a 4-0 scoreline
against a team Tarporley Vics Reserves had
not previously beaten.
 Tarporley Vics players Nick
Abson, Luke Heritage & Matthew
Dean presented a cheque to
John Maddock from Claire House
Children’s Hospice. The donation
was made up of the proceeds
from a pre Christmas bag packing
evening at Marks & Spencers in
Chester and from a Boxing Day
Charity Game which was played
between Tarporley Vics Reserves
and Tarporley Vics Veterans.

BLAST
FROM
THE
PAST

The articles regarding Tarporley Vics history has stimulated even more interest. Peter
Willis has allowed me to scan through some local news clippings of the late 1950s & early
1960s which have provided photographs and some interesting facts as can be seen from
the examples reproduced here. An AGM and separate match report are from August and
November 1958 respectively, whilst the photograph is from the late 1960s or early 1970s.
How many of the faces do you recognise in the photograph? All of the other photos and
clippings can be found on the “History” page of our website www.tarporleyvics.co.uk.

Bright future for Joanna
JOANNA Bright has been singled out for praise after
doing some amazing fund raising work.
The year 8 student was given the Good Citizen of the
Year award from ‘Select Education’ for her fantastic
achievements.
Last year she supported Operation Christmas
Child, McMillan Cancer Support and RSPCA as
well as joining the school’s ‘Eco-Warriors’ team to
help reduce the school’s carbon footprint.
During Year 7 Charity Week Joanna, alongside
her friends, organised a talent show for the
entire school and executed the auditions and
final without any teacher assistance. This event
was the most successful event of the week!
Joanna has also visited and helped out at a clinic
in Nepal which her family support.

Year 8 students at Tarporley High School

raised £1,027 during their charity week.
After a year group vote they decided to
divide the funds equally between MS
Support & Cancer Research
UK. They ran cake sales, a
‘catch the can’ competition,
sweets in the jar
competition, talent show,
‘sponge the teacher’ event,
and a ‘guess the teacher

competition.

 Tattenhall hope for
a successful summer
TATTENHALL Cricket Club will be hoping to go
one better this season and secure promotion to
the 1st Division.
After being in the top two for most of last
year, they narrowly missed going up from the
Cheshire County Cricket League.
This year they welcome Indian
batsman Madhur Jethlia who is studing
at Liverpool University. The club hope
that the talented opener will help them
push for promotion again.
He will have tough act to follow after
last year’s overseas player, Trinidadian
Damian Lewis who took 50 wickets,
including nine on the opening day.
The club boast one of the finest and
most picturesque grounds in the county, which
has been recognised this year by being asked
to host a two day minor county game between
Cheshire A and the Durham Academy on the
30th June and 1st July.
The club runs four senior teams which
consists of a 1st and 2nd XI who play on
Saturdays, a 3rd XI who play on Sundays and
a sociable, but competitive over 40s team who
play on a Wednesday evening.
30 To advertise call 01244 350398
They have a very strong junior section running
teams in leagues at Under 9, 11, 13, 15 & 18
level. Each team is managed and coached
and they are proud to have 10 fully qualified
level one and above coaches in the club.
Under 9s and Under 11s have their coaching
on Saturday mornings at the club and
that begins on 18th April. U13, and
15s have their coaching on Thursday
nights, while the under 18s train with
the seniors on Tuesdays
Tattenhall is also officially been
awarded Clubmark from the ECB
which demonstrates it commitment to
junior cricket in providing a safe and
friendly environment for them to play
cricket.
The first important date on the calendar is
4th April which is known as National Cricket
Force Day in the country where all clubs are
encouraged to carry out voluntary work on their
ground and encourage the local community to
get involved and donate services.
They hope to have many club members there
helping out and are also using this day as a
registration day for all our junior members, who
would like to come down and sign up
for the season, and maybe help out.
Other key dates are listed below:-
7th April: Outdoor nets begin Tuesdays
throughout the season from 6.15pm
18th April: First league game – 1st
Team at home to Burnage, 2nd team
away
26th April: The 3rd team’s first game –
cup match away to Timperley. Captain Rob Mulvihill welcomes Indian
The 1st team also play in the National opening batsman Madhur Jethlia
Village KO where finalists play at Lords. Below: Flashback to last year when
Tattenhall have won the Cheshire and North Damian Lewis claimed nine wickets on his
Wales section three times in the last six opening day
years , reaching the last 32 in the country ,
but have never managed to get any further.
They begin their village KO campaign on
Sunday 17th May at home against Halkyn.
The club would be delighted to hear from
any potential new players from all age
groups from seniors to juniors, and of all
abilities.
