In late 1992 Steve Mariner and Julian Deeprose got talking about 20k breaks. Although a regular occurrence in other Counties, it was still a rarity to see a 20k break in Sussex. In fact at that time, and to my knowledge, only Steve & Julian had made a 20k break in a match. So the two of them decided as from 1993 they would award a bright red 20k shirt to any Sussex player who could achieve a 20k break in any match. Above are the current list of players, breaks and dates when they first passed that 20k break barrier.

Congratulations to Mick on his first 20K break. Mick has numerous high break trophies in Horsham and Billingshurst, but the 20k had always eluded him. Not any more, welcome to the club. Who will be next ???
