Gilchrist Breaks Record in PlayerLayer

PlayerLayer continues to expand its presence in Cricket. PlayerLayer are now the official Baselayer Supplier for Middlesex County Cricket Club.Middlesex have been wearing their Pink PlayerLayer in their T20 fixtures this Summer.Cricket is becoming more and more athletic and it's equipment is constantly developing. I would class the Middlesex PlayerLayers the guys have as a piece of equipment, where as their old Cricket sweaters are just an item of clothing. Staying warm is of course a vital factor for any athletes level of performance and in cricket the risk of a player to get cold is high, between overs and in the field.Luke Woodhouse  - Middlesex strength and conditioning coach Adam Gilchrist celebrated his first game in charge by scoring a Middlesex Twenty20 record score as his side beat Kent by six wickets at Canterbury. Having won the toss, Gilchrist inserted Kent, who ran up 183-6, with a half century from Martin Van Jaarsveld (50) and 44 from Joe Denly. But Gilchrist smashed 106 off 52 balls, containing seven sixes and 10 fours, to lead his team within seven of victory.His PlayerLayer must have taken effect on what was a particularly chilly evening! 

The Henley Royal Regatta

  p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 14.0px 0.0px; font: 14.0px Calibri} "For some, Henley is all about strawberries and champagne, for others it is blood, sweat and tears" PlayerLayer spent the day with Dulwich College at the Henley Royal Regatta. We followed their raceday rituals and began to understand the effort and work that goes into rowing.  The Regatta lasts for five days, over the first weekend in July. Races are head-to-head knock out competitions, raced over a course of 1 mile, 550 yards. It is a cut throat tournament. Unfortunately, Dulwich were victims of the knock out nature of Henley in what was described as 'the race of the day'.   p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 14.0px 0.0px; font: 14.0px Calibri} As the Henley Regatta pre-dates any national or international rowing organisation, it has its own rules and organisation, so it really is a great British sporting tradition. PlayerLayer joined the Dulwich College team at the house they had rented for the duration of the Regatta. They were busy preparing for their race, meeting with officials and watching videos of previous races. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 14.0px 0.0px; font: 14.0px Calibri} We met the Dulwich team back at their boat house to grab a few photos while they prepared to get out on the water for a warm up. After that they donned their new PlayerLayer Gilets and headed off for some food. PlayerLayer are working closely with Dulwich College to design a new rowing range of sports clothing. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 14.0px 0.0px; font: 14.0px Calibri} After wishing the team  good luck, and grabbing a few shots of them getting ready for their race, we headed back to the stewards tent for a good view of the event. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 14.0px 0.0px; font: 14.0px Calibri} After an early lead the Dulwich boys were neck and neck with their opponents, but began to tire a little and their opponents slipped ahead. Fighting hard,  Dulwich unfortunately could not get the lead back and lost by a very narrow margin.  PlayerLayer have fully embraced the world of rowing and love what the sport stands for. On the day of the race a Dulwich College spectator was overheard saying " If one of the guys misses a session, they all miss a session". We spoke to another Royal Regatta spectator, his hair was white and his blazor striped; the classic look of a rowing veteran. He quoted his son to us " sweat is when my muscles cry ". We thought this summarised the passion that goes into the sport.  Many Thanks to Jack Neville for his photography services on the the day of the event.
