Name: Allan Highfield

Role: Chairman

Position: Right hand bat, right arm off spin bowler

Comment: Allan joined Lexden in 1973 and has served on the Committee in different capacities since 1980. He was Social Secretary for a number of years and initiated the annual Lexden Golf Day which has now been running for 25 years. He was Fixture Secretary for over 20 years before stepping down in 2005 and has been Chairman since 1994. 2006 was a special year for Allan as he scored his first century for Lexden and played a leading role as opening batsman in winning the Club's first ever divisional championship. In 2007 he made his highest ever score(128)on the way to being voted Lexden's Batsman of the Year.

Name: Anthony Shearman

Role: Treasurer

Position: Right hand bat, occasional right arm bowler

Comment: Anthony joined Lexden in 1991 having previously been with Boxted. He was Treasurer for many years and after a short break has returned to that role. He was the most successful captain in Lexden's history securing 4 promotions. He also holds the record for the second-best bowling analysis for the Club of 8 for 49(2003 v Tendring), much to the disgust of his team-mates! His trademark shot is the 'swivel' of which he claims to be the pioneer, although others have yet to follow his trail.

Name: Ed Vandermark

Role: Club Secretary & Friendlies Vice-captain

Position: Right arm seam bowler, right hand bat

Comment: Ed joined Lexden back in 2002 at the age of 23 and worked his way into the side having only played non-league cricket for a couple of years previously. His most successful year came in 2005 when after a lot of hard work and practice he was presented with the Lexden Bowler of the Year trophy for taking 31 wickets in the season at an average of 18. Also in 2005 he took on the role of Social Secretary (aka, organising the piss up's!!) which with his efforts and enthusiasm earned him the Clubman of the Year award. In 2007 he remained the Club's Social Secretary and also became Vice-Captain for the friendies team. For 2008 he has stepped down as Social Secretary in order to take on the role of Club Secretary.

Name: Jeremy Jenkins

Role: Social Secretary & Child Welfare Officer

Position: Right arm medium pace bowler, right hand bat

Comment: Jeremy joined Lexden for the 2006 season having not played cricket for the previous 20 years. Not surprisingly his bowling was distinctly rusty but he practised hard throughout the winter at indoor nets. As a result he had an immediate impact, taking 15 wickets at 23.40 in Lexden's championship-winning side. He then joined the Committee for 2007 by taking on the roles of Child Welfare Officer and Assistant Social Secretary before becoming Social Secretary in his own right for 2008.

Name: Jerry Morgan

Role: Vice Chairman, Friendlies Captain & Groundsman

Position: Right hand bat, reserve wicket keeper

Comment: Jerry joined Lexden in 1979 and soon afterwards was persuaded to becone Treasurer. He held that position for many years before relinquishing it, only to become Club Secretary. He performed that role until 2004 and in 2005 was elected Vice-Chairman. In 1996 he started carrying out minor work on the square at Spring Lane, gradually taking on more & more until by 2000 he had become the groundsman. He still carries out those duties and has overseen the square's progression from one of the worst in the district to one of the best. When the Club decided to start up a friendlies side for the 2007 season Jerry became it's first Captain.

Name: Robin Seller

Role: Club Captain & League Representative

Position: Right hand bat

Comment: Robin joined Lexden in 1987 as a colt and progressed through into the senior ranks soon after. Having been a committee member for 13 years, he became Club Secretary in 2004 and began his second stint as Club Captain in 2006. In that season Robin led the Club to the Championship of Division 3 in the PDQ Cars North Essex Cricket League. Pressure of work forced him to stand down as Secretary for 2008 although he continues to be the Club's league representative.
