WILDEN CRICKET CLUB – 11th DECEMBER 2018
APOLOGIES: HOWARD BURLEY PRESENT: MARK, GEOFF, NIC
PRESENTATION EVENING WAS DEEMED A SUCCESS WITH MORE ATTENDING THAN PREVIOUS YEAR. AS A CONSEQUENCE, THE BAR BILL WAS ALSO GREATER. THE COMMITTEE ARE TO LOOK TO INCREASE THE SPONSORSHIP REVENUE TO COVER THIS IN FUTURE YEARS.
BEN COX WAS THANKED FOR HIS APPEARANCE
JUST TWO TROPHIES HAD TO BE REPLACED
THE ONLY RULE CHANGE WAS THE NO-BALL FOR MORE THAN ONE BOUNCERS ABOVE SHOULDER HEIGHT PER BATSMAN PER OVER, BRINGING IT IN LINE WITH WCB REGULATIONS.
THE ADOPTION OF PINK BALLS FOR THE FINALS HAS BEEN BUILT INTO THIS YEAR’S BUDGET
THE LEAGUE AND CUP PROGRAMME IS TO MIRROR 2018 SEASON WITH TWO LEAGUES OF EIGHT ALTHOUGH THREE TEAMS HAVE YET TO PAY THEIR REGISTRATION FEES (WILDEN,WATERFRONT AND WEST HAGLEY) THE LEAGUES WILL BE AS SHOWN BELOW.
THE HANDBOOK DISTRIBUTION WILL BE AS 2018 WITH A COMPLETE RULES BOOK ISSUED TO CAPTAINS AND UMPIRES, PLUS AN ADDITIONAL NUMBER OF BASIC COPIES WITH SIMPLE RULES, CONTACT DETAILS AND FIXTURES. THERE WILL BE FEW CHANGES TO THE WORDING. THE COMMITTEE WOULD WELCOME ADVERTS @ £50 PER PAGE, OFFSETTING THE FINANCIAL BURDEN.
THE COMMITTEE WOULD WELCOME NEW BLOOD TO THEIR RANKS AS CURRENTLY WE ARE BARELY QUORATE!
ON THE HORIZON THERE ARE CONCERNS RELATED TO DBS REQUIREMENT FOR ON FIELD CAPTAINS, WELFARE OFFICERS, INSURANCE AND CLUB UMPIRES. ONCE AGAIN THERE ARE MUTTERINGS FROM ECB WHICH WILL ULTIMATELY NEED OUR ATTENTION.
