Special award: Paul Lees, eight wickets for 13 runs

The chairman also presented flowers to Brenda Boundy as a thank you for providing the teas for most of the season, and also to scorer Di Hugo.

The club enjoyed a reasonably successful season, finishing fourth in division six of the Cornwall league.
