It is with great sadness that we have just learnt of the death of Bill Lockey.  Bill was a great friend to our club; he offered us friendship, support and advice, he umpired friendlies for us the most recent was against one of his former clubs Seaton Burn in April 2017.

 

Bill made an outstanding contribution to cricket in the region as a player, umpire and cricket official.  He also played for Bates Cottages CC.

 

He umpired in both the Northumberland League and the Northumberland & Tyneside Senior League.  He served as a club officer and an esteemed member of the Northumberland Cricket League Committee for a number of years and at the time of his death was a Life Member of the League.

 

He will be greatly missed and Ashington Rugby Cricket Club members offers its condolences to his family and friends.

The following table is provided as general overview only. The ECB are not registered immigration officials therefore if you require specific immigration guidance you will need to contact UK Visas and Immigration. 

Clubs wishing to use the services of a player who is not on a Tier 5 Creative & Sporting (Non FCC) visa, must ensure that the visa allows them to play and/or coach.

In addition, you must continue to work for your sponsor in the job recorded on your Certificate of Sponsorship.

"Professional Sportsperson"

The term "Professional Sportsperson" is defined by the Rules as someone, whether paid or unpaid, who:

"is providing services as a sportsperson, playing or coaching in any capacity, at a professional or semi-professional level of sport; or

"being a person who currently derives, who has in the past derived or seeks in the future to derive, a living from playing or coaching, is providing services as a sports person or coach at any level of sport, unless they are doing so as an "Amateur"."

The Home Office has advised that it would consider that the following are likely to be included in the definition of "Professional Sportsperson":

* players who have played for professional or semi-professional clubs at junior levels, which may include under 19s teams, whether they were paid or not;

* coaches of junior teams of professional or semi-professional clubs, whether they were paid or not;

* former professional sportspeople who have formally reverted to amateur status according to the rules of their sport; and

* players who have played representative sport for their state, country, or territory, whether they were paid or not.

"Amateur Sportsperson"

A person who engages in a sport or creative activity solely for the personal enjoyment and who is not seeking to derive a living from the activity. This also includes a person playing or coaching in a charity game.

"Seeking to derive a living"

A person may be considered to be seeking to derive a living if they are part of a Player Pathway.

"Player Pathway"

Player “Pathway” definition: A player may be considered to be on a “Pathway” and therefore classified as a “Professional Sportsperson”, if that person has played cricket above U17 at state / province / territory level (paid or unpaid) in any country.

"Reasonable expenses"

What is considered reasonable will be based on the cost in the geographical location of where the person is living - Reimbursement of airfare, board & lodgings.

The Home Office definition for "Payment" of "reasonable expenses" for a player travelling on a Standard Visitor Visa (SVV) is stated as follows:

"The applicant must not receive payment from a UK source for any activities undertaken in the UK, except for the following:

(a) reasonable expenses to cover the cost of their travel and subsistence.

(Refer to the Immigration Rules Appendix V: visitor rules under Clause V4.7(a))

New N&TCL 2018 season
Nov 22, 2017, 7:10 pm

We attended the last AGM for the Northumberland Cricket League on Tuesday 21st November and then new joint league AGM for the newly formed Northumberland & Tyneside Cricket League.

Fixtures will be out soon, we were informed that the first league game will be played on 14th April 2018, 1 week earlier than we used to start. When the fixtures are released members will be informed and fixtures sheets will be given out. 

Leagues 1 & 2 will have 2 umpires for each match and leagues 3, 4 & 5 North and South will have 1 umpire, if there is any spare umpires they will be given position's in League Division 3 to try to get this league up, to 2 umpires for each game. League Division 6 North and South will have no umpires.

It will certainly be a change from what we have been used to with clubs from our old league now looking for professionals, our club is not one of those, we will be playing with what we have and any new players who want to play for us without a payment.
