End of an era at Grange Loan

14 years after arriving at Grange Loan for a one year stint as Carlton professional, Cedric English has announced that he is leaving the club.

In his time at Grange Loan, Cedric picked up 251 SNCL wickets and hit a phenomenal 6630 SNCL runs. Although his early efforts were aimed at keeping Carlton in the Premier League, the club developed over the years to the point where Cedric was a key part of a side that won three National T20 trophies plus the SNCL title in 2012.
