It is with great sadness that we have to share the news that our friend and club colleague Stuart Haines has passed away.

The thoughts of everyone at the club are with Stu’s family at this incredibly sad time.

Stu was a mainstay of our club, an enthusiastic volunteer with a passion for promoting WDIBC and a fine bowler. He had many friends at our club and also with the players in the Northumberland Federation teams where he was team captain for the Newton.

He will be missed and remembered.
