It is with incredible sadness that we give notice of the passing of 24 year old Josh Downie 1st team opening batsmen for Birkenhead Park CC. Josh was taken ill at nets and passed away on the evening 6th May, we offer our deepest sympathies to his family at this dreadful time.

Very sad news. Brian has been a long standing umpire across Merseyside, St Helens and the Liverpool Comp as well as a rugby union referee for many years. A popular man his love of grass roots sports was legendary. He will be badly missed. Thoughts and prayers with his family.
It is with great sadness that we share the news that Brian Ball passed away in the early hours of this morning.
We pass our deepest condolences to his son Stephen and the rest of his family at this difficult time.
