April has arrived, which can only mean one thing—cricket season is upon us! We’re gearing up for another fantastic summer, and outdoor pre-season training officially kicks off at Oakley Park on April 9th. Time to dust off the kit, find that missing batting glove, and get back into the swing of things!
A huge well done to everyone who braved indoor training and the indoor league. Those winter net sessions matches all add up, and we’ll be hitting the ground running thanks to your efforts. And of course, a special shoutout to our groundwork heroes—the unsung legends who keep our facilities looking better every summer. Without you, we’d playing on the equivalent of a neglected council pitch.
Membership
Membership numbers are looking pretty solid, but we have had a couple of players move on, so there’s always room for new faces or returning club legends. If you know someone who fancies getting back into the game, please bring them along next Wednesday for a taster session!
Speaking of membership, it’s now due! We know parting with your hard-earned cash isn’t always fun, but rest assured, every penny goes straight back into making the club even better. Plus, consider it an investment—you’re funding ever improving facilities and some great cricket in what, we hope, will be a better summer than the last two.
Hit the Square Running!
We’re almost there, so let’s get as many people involved as possible in the warm-up matches and Wednesday night training. This season is shaping up to be incredibly competitive across all three Saturday teams, so let’s hit the square running, leave the rust behind, and make it a summer to remember at the Theatre of Scenes!
See you all soon!
