It was a season of continued development for CSNI as they once again laid solid foundations that will stand them in good stead for the years ahead.
They finished sixth in the Premier League and reached the semi-finals of the Challenge Cup.
Stuart Thompson scored eight 50s on his way to 673 runs at 48.07, while professional Ryan Harrison made their two senior hundreds as well as three fifties in his tally of 633 at 37.24.
Marc Ellison impressed with 582 at 41.47 (4 fifties), while Ryan Hunter showed his promise in 464 runs at 23.20 - including a highest score of 91.
Others worthy of mention are Paddy Beverland (286 at 22) and Harry Dyer (194 at 14.92).
Matty Foster topped the bowling charts taking 23 wickets at 22.48 including their only five-wicket haul.
No other bowler reached 20 wickets but three teenagers managed double figure contributions.
Finn Lutton took 19 as did Ryan Harrison, while James West managed (17), Connor deWet (16) and Harry Dyer (14).
The crop of youngsters will be one year older in 2024 and if they continue their improvement will be certainly helping the Stormont side challenge for trophies in the seasons ahead.
