Six Gun Grill WP cricketers Delmari Tucker and Kyle Simmonds were the big winners on a special night as the Western Province Cricket Association celebrated their 2021/2022 end of season Awards function.

The glitzy event was held in the new Multipurpose Hall in the new business precinct at Six Gun Grill Newlands where all the amateur and professional awards were handed out.

All the respective league and competition winners in WP Club Cricket were celebrated whilst Durbanville Cricket Club was awarded the prestigious WPCA Club of the Year.

Six Gun Grill WP Women’s Coach Claire Terblanche was named as the WPCA Coach of the Year after she led her young team to the CSA T20 title. That same team won the Team of the Year Award, with Captain Leah Jones collecting the award before being joined by the rest of her team-mates on stage.

In her personal capacity, Jones was announced as the Six Gun Grill WP Women’s 1 Day Player of the Year, whilst Kayla Reyneke was named as the Young Player of the Year and Faye Tunnicliffe won the T20 Player of the Year.

It was then the Delmari Tucker show as she walked away with the Women’s Players’ Player of the Year and the most prestigious award in WP Women’s Cricket, the Six Gun Grill WP Women Player of the Year.

On the professional men’s side, batter Jonathan Bird was awarded for his breakout season when he was named as the Six Gun Grill WP Men’s Young Player of the Year, whilst leg-spinner Junaid Dawood was rewarded for his performances in T20 Cricket with the T20 Player of the Year Award. Tshepo Moreki won the 1 Day Cup Player of the Year trophy for his efforts with the ball in last season’s competition.

Like Tucker earlier on in the evening, all eyes then proceeded to fall onto Six Gun Grill WP all-rounder Kyle Simmonds who was named as the 4 Day Player of the Year for his all-round exploits in first-class cricket and then he was awarded the Players’ Player of the Year before being called up for one final time for the evening as he was presented with the big award, the Six Gun Grill WP Player of the Year Award. Quite the way to cap off an incredible first season with his new franchise.
