Glynde & Beddingham Cricket Club were crowned 2009 Village Cup champions after a thrilling village over Streethouse in the Lord's final.
The Sussex side won by just six runs in Monday's match.
Glynde reached 207-9 in their 40 overs with Joe Adams reaching 79 and the man of the match told BBC Sussex: "It's every blokes dream really.
"It's always nervous but after five or 10 overs I settled in and it started to come back."
Mark Beddis, who got two key wickets in one over, added: "You don't understand what was going through our heads.
"At one point we're thinking we're cruising this when they're 100-odd for four, and then they started pushing the ball around, the captain came out, he really took control of the innings.
"Before you knew it they're they're 180-odd with five overs left and looking quite relaxed with it all."
The final twist was in Glynde's favour as they took important wickets in the penultimate over to secure the trophy.
Captain Adam Davies added: "[It is] still surreal, that second half was just immense.
"I've never been under so much pressure as a captain and it was just so close. I'm so proud of the boys they bowled so well."
