Youth Cricket Sessions
For those players who are now too old to take part in the Friday night sessions we have arranged for the club professional Kotak to hold Youth training sessions on Monday Nights 6:00-8:00pm. This will use a mixture of the outdoor nets, all-weather pitch and outfield to cover all elements of playing cricket. Initially this is open to those in Years 8 & 9 who would like to play for the U13 and U14 teams.
The application form can be found here:
Application Form 2012
Please let us know if you want to attend as soon as possible so we can open up the opportunity to others if there are places.

Fundraising for 2012
Following the council’s recent re-organisation of the club’s financial arrangements, we (the cricket section) are now entirely responsible for our own finances.
In order to maintain the status quo in ground hours, overseas player and all other running costs, we need to deliver £10,000 in external income in 2012. This includes some existing items – brochure advertising, raffle, sponsorship – but is still a very stretching target.
To this end, everyone needs to get behind three big fundraising initiatives –
April Cricket Evening Function
There will be a pre-season cricket evening function during early April – details to follow in January. Like last year, it will combine a meal with some cricket-based entertainment. Tickets will be no more than £20 each – please make every effort to attend, and bring friends and family, as we need 175 people there.
Club Brochure
The annual brochure enjoyed a successful overhaul last year, and we need to grow the advertising even further this time around. Stuart Smyth will be co-ordinating the production of the brochure during March, so please make every effort to help him by renewing existing advertisers, and finding new ones.
Floodlit T20 Competition
In an exciting new initiative, Glasshouse Park will host a floodlit T20 week in early August, with Wardens, Leamington, Coventry and Knowle & Dorridge contesting a trophy and prize money over five nights of thrilling action. There will be white balls, coloured kit, music and all the glitz that accompanies T20 cricket, as the area’s top four club sides go head-to-head.
We are urgently seeking sponsors – including a title sponsor – as well as companies who are interested in hospitality at the event. It is the first such event of its type in Warwickshire, and the first time floodlit cricket has been played in the county outside of Edgbaston. If you are interested, or know someone who might be interested, please get in contact with Martin Donald (martinjamesdonald@hotmail.co.uk).
We anticipate plenty of media interest in the local/regional area, so this is a good chance for cricket-loving companies to support local cricket, while getting themselves some exposure.
Beakie is also heading the organising committee, who will doubtless be in touch with many of you to request assistance with the myriad of practical tasks that need to happen if the week is to be successful. Please do your best to assist.
