The Beechgrove side did a cup double winning the Senior and Faughan Valley trophies, while they were a whisker away from making it a memorable treble.

Ifty Hussain topped their run charts with 744 runs at 33.82 (1 hundred, 4 fifties),while Cameron Melly impressed as he made 723 at an excellent average of 60.25 (1 hundred, 6 fifties).

David Barr had an up and down campaign making 6 ducks and 6 fifties - as well as a 100 - on his way to 637 at 31.85.

Adam McDaid like the aforementioned trio also made six half centuries on his way to 590 at 29.50.

There was a bit of a gap then to Scott Macbeth who would have expected more than one fifty in his 393 at 26.20.

Andy Britton (374 at 28.77) and Ryan Macbeth (300 at 37.50) made it no fewer than seven batters making 300 runs or more.

The Macbeth brothers enjoyed prolific campaigns with the ball with Scott taking 44 wickets at just 13.89, just pipping Ryan who claimed 43 wickets at 14.30.

Ifty Hussain had 35 scalps at 16.34, while David Barr chipped in with 25 at 17.92, while Andy Britton took 23 at 20.52 despite an ongoing injury - including a five-wicket cup final haul.

JP Millar (19 at 19.74) and Josh Wilson (17 at 22.76) shared bowling duties due to the points system that meant they rarely featured together.

A second season without a title will sting Brigade despite two trophies in the cabinet. They will no doubt have one or two new faces lined up for 2024. Whatever the personnel at Beechgrove, they will remain the team to beat.
