Cricket
section AGM
Please remember that the section AGM is on

All the usual
captaincy positions will require filling, so please give consideration to who you would like to see
in these important positions. We will also be looking for a new Chairman of the cricket section
for the 2007 season as Robin has decided to step down to concentrate on organising the colts section.
If you are
interested in taking up the reins, please find yourself a Proposer and Seconder
for the meeting.
Date
for your Diary...
For a variety of reasons, this years dinner will not now take place until
sometime in March/April, we will however
be having a 'do' at the club on the first Saturday in December. It will be a semi formal occasion in as much as
we will be putting on a buffet and disco and there will be a small cost implication which has yet to be fixed.
Please put this date in your diary now and make every effort to attend and bring along a friend or two.
It will
be a good social occasion and will be a way of supporting the club through the
long winter months.
