At the time of writing this email, the League has advised me that due
to continued lack of availability within our club, our 4th XI have been
expelled from the League program for the remainder of the 2018 season.
The Saturday 4th XI has long been a fantastic cricket opportunity for
all of our players; be it the younger players that come through from
the youth section, the players who still want a game even into their
maturer years, and the occasional players who cannot commit to whole
seasons. With this in mind, the Management Committee of the club are
still committed to running 4 teams on a Saturday, and as a result, I
have approached all of our opposition for the remainder of the season to
ask them if they wish to play friendly matches which followed our
League program.
I am waiting to hear back from a couple of our opposition, however so
far the feedback to this proposal has been very accepting and all clubs
have been in agreement to continue playing where we can.
With this in mind, I would ask members to continue to make themselves
available, and to advise of their availability, so that we can continue
to field as many teams as possible so that we can offer all our members
cricket.
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me.
Best regards
Dave Ayres
Club Chairman
