Nomad of the Year. (Voted by the members)

Mal Pinfield was voted the Nomad of the year. Chairman Ray Jennett presented the award and described Malcolm as the 'driving force of the Nomads.

Mal scored the highest individual score of the season, 85 against W.T. Parker and  finished as the second highest run scorer.  He deputised as captain on several occasions and contributed behind the scenes as the fixtures secretary.

Performance of the Year. (Chosen by the committee)
The winner was Neil Hemmings for his performance against Blythe Bridge in the thrilling victory in the penultimate game of the season. Neil took 4 for 16 with the ball and then scored 24 in a vital partnership with Dave Forster which helped pave the way for victory.

Fielder of the Year. (Chosen by the committee)
Awarded to Ted Osborn for excellent wicket keeping throughout the season.

An injury to Pete Gardner (broken collar bone) meant that Ted was pressed into service and he performed admirably. He was always willing to put the batsman under pressure by standing up. He finished the season with 11 catches and five stumpings.

Gonad of the year.
Fuzz Weir won the Gonad of the Year.
Fuzz was always in the driving seat for this award and his fifth Gonad at Sutton on the Hill secured the title when the Barton match was cancelled. For good measure he claimed his sixth duck in the last match against Essington & Great Wyreley. 2004 Gonads - Full Details
