Tonight our Chairman dropped off our Clubs Christmas present at our main sponsor’s house and K Plastics has agreed to sponsor the club for another year, this is great news for our club and our business plan, this will help support the club over the coming season in improving our facilities and also keep our heads above water with our finances.

Thanks Chris very much appreciated.

Bede Academy at Blyth do not have any slots available other than late on a Friday night which is not suitable so we will have to look at other venues.

Our club Annual General Meeting (AGM) is to be held on Tuesday 22nd January at 7pm in our team room at the "Rec".

This follows the Northumberland Cricket League Meeting on Tuesday 15th January were fixtures and cup draws will be made available. This will allow our Chairman just enough time to have the fixtures ready in our club format ready for our AGM.

Can members please make an effort to turn up as this is your chance to have your say in how our club is run and in the election of officials “playing and non-playing”. If you are unable to attend please inform the Secretary or Chairman and pass on any comments or proposals you may want to make.

The Leagues AGM is to be held on Wednesday 14th November 2012 at New Hartley Social Club.

Planned for 24th November the committee decided to have a part race night with only 5 races instead of the normal 9, along with a buffet. Doors open at 7 night to start at 7:30pm.

We have had to levy a charge of £2.50 for the buffet, to be paid in advance of the night this I may point out is not the full cost of the buffet the rest will be put in by the club. We do intend to have a raffle and members are asked to bring a prizes with them as we normally do.

We will be looking for members to buy, pay for in advance and name a horse for the night, so this can be put the in the race card, we are also looking at race sponsors for our 4 races normally at £20. The auction race sponsor is the club's main sponsor Kplastic's. 

 Program is as follows;
