Have you dusted down cricket gear ready for our cricket nets on 5th March 2015 at Blue Flames, 7:30pm till 9:00pm?

See the countdown clock in both top corners of our web page.

Do you know anyone interested in trying out at our nets if so bring them along we are always looking for new playing members?

Your club recommends that all members consider signing up to their own Personal Accident Insurance.  Whilst serious injuries are thankfully very rare, however it is a possibility and members should consider taking such a policy out. 

Your club does not have personal accident insurance for its members.

If you are self-employed or do not benefit from a workplace sickness scheme with sickness pay you should consider this type of insurance especially if you are not fit enough to attend work, please ensure that any personal accident/sickness insurance you consider, covers you playing club cricket. 

As requested at our AGM, we have booked the Rugby Club for our fancy dress, for the 27th June, the 1st Team play Bomarsund at home and the 2nd team play Bomarsund away.  We will ask the Bomar lads if they are interested in attending as a number came last year for the crack.

What should be the theme this year, last year it was a 80s night, how about - TV personalities, sports stars, pop stars, film themes or anything goes.

Theme ideas to your Secretary or Chairman. 

The dates and times on offer from South North were not suitable, so the club were left with no alternative but to go back to Blue Flames nets start 5th March 7:30pm till 9:00pm. We hope to see a good turn out as normal. Once we get into April we will try to net outside as much as we can weather permitting.

We have registered with NatWest again to take part in the 2015 cricket force event which takes place Saturday 28th March 9:00am start.

We will be doing our normal work which is building up our mobile covers, sight screens, sorting out our scorebox, tea room and kitchen so they are all ready to use for the season starting in April.

We have been accepted for a Jewson Privilege Account where we put in £50 and the ECB credit our account with additional money, (we are just waiting to be contacted by the local Jewson Manager so we can set up out account) this money needs to be spent by 30th September otherwise we will lose it (no fear of that, as we spend quite a bit on paint and tools and odds and sods etc. during the season).

Tuesday 27th January saw a good turn out at our clubs AGM as normal, no changes with our committee and senior officers.
