Jack Tinton
Name: Jack Tinton

Another to suffer from the trip to the Shrubbery last year as he decided to give the comedian some banter – not the brightest of ideas mate. Talented sportsman, Jack came of age as a Cheddar player when he hit 33 for the Thirds against Sparkford last season. Although it doesn’t sound a lot, the way he went about scoring the runs was a joy to watch. Jack will benefit from the decision to run a 4th team this season, because it will allow him to play more of a role for each game. Hopefully he can remain injury free and place his name in the hat to play at a higher level.
