Welcome
to the Sherborne Pilgrims website.
The Club was founded in 1923 with the objectives "to promote and
encourage all forms of Old Shirburnian sport, and to keep members in
touch with one another and with the School". This website is administered
by the Club and was set up in April 2002. It is updated regularly and
it is anticipated that the site will grow in accordance with the needs
and wishes of the Club and its members.
The Club welcomes any suggestions, from any
OS (or indeed any casual visitor to this website), for improvements,
refinements and additions to the material herein. It is designed
for ease of use and for ready access to information that should
help to lessen the burden on those who administer Pilgrims
sport. Please send all comments to me at:

Michael Wingfield Digby (b 51-56)
It is with great sadness that we notify Pilgrims of the death
of Michael Wingfield Digby on 28 August 2008.
As well as representing the Club in 12 Cricketer Cup matches,
Michael was an indispensable wicketkeeper/batsman in Pilgrims
fixtures all over the country for many years. Above all, he
brought fantastic energy and fun to the game.
He will be greatly missed by Jackie and all his many cricket
and racing friends.
There will be a memorial service for Michael in Sherborne
Abbey on Friday 10th October at 2.30pm, to which all are welcome.
