For one day only, friendships are firmly set aside as west meets east on the sands — neighbours turned rivals, all in pursuit of local glory. The beach becomes a battleground, and the stakes couldn’t be higher: pride, honour, and a long winter ahead for the defeated.

Earlsferry come in as the current holders, and won’t be giving it up lightly.

So pick your side, raise your voice, and come down to support your half of the villages — this is local rivalry at its very best, and the very essence of beach cricket.
