SUNDAY CRICKET
This season the Sunday 1st XI does not have a designated captain and therefore the team will be managed by Jason Travers. He will have the responsibility of selecting the team, arranging umpires, scorers, teas, etc and doing all the relevant admin. A captain will be chosen each week from the selected team who will be responsible for the normal captains duties on a match day.
Availability from the senior members has been pretty poor on Sundays for a couple of years now and is something we need to address. With the addition of the MDL competition on Sundays for the younger members we need the senior players to come to the fore. Sunday cricket should be a day for a nice social game of cricket maybe without the added pressure of league points that exists on a Saturday. We have dropped down to Division 3 of the Chess Valley League in the hope of providing a good even competitive game of cricket in a relaxed environment. It's ideal for members who are unable to play on a Saturday and also those colts who have school cricket on a Saturday and would like a good introduction into senior cricket.
Our first league game is on Sunday 4th June away to Harpenden. Matches are 45 overs a side and start at 1pm.
If you would like to play Sunday cricket then please update your availability on the website.
If you are interested in captaining the side for a game (or games) or if you have any questions then please feel free to contact Jason on 07740286134 or kerry.travers@sky.com
