Hi All We will be holding our 2017 Annual General Meeting on TUESDAY 25th JULY at the cricket clubhouse starting at 7.00pm At the AGM all Executive and Committee member positions for 2017/18 will be available for nomination. Please consider taking on a role as we all know, many hands make light work. Sadly, in the last few seasons the majority of the roles I have listed below have been completed by just a couple of volunteers so it would be fantastic if more of our parents would consider taking on a role or even sharing with a friend.....

We need as many members/parents as possible to attend the AGM or to contact us and help us fill these roles. The more people we have helping, the smaller each role will be, and it will share the workload. If you would like to know any more information about any of the above roles or would like to discuss nominating for a role please do not hesitate to contact me and I more than happy to help...... Even if you do not intend on fulfilling any of the committee roles we would still love to see you at the meeting and have your input and remember to spread the word that junior cricket is fun, its open to boys and girls, its affordable and its played locally.....
