Hi all,
Hope this update finds all our members well. It has been a tough start to season but with the sun now firmly out lets hope for some better fortune.
Cricket week
Please start to check our cricket week fixtures and book some time into your diaries.
The week starts on 31st of July with a visit from South Walsham
We should have 4 to 5 games running until Monday 7th August, just awaiting confirmation from opponents to firm up fixtures.
In addition we will look to have a club social event within the week.
Sunday Cricket
We have two fixtures this year planned both against Rayleigh
25th June away
20th August home
This is a trial to see if there is enough interest from members to offer more in future as we know Saturday fixtures can be tricky due to work commitments etc.
If you are interested in playing please update website accordingly or contact Ollie Harp / Kevin Robinson
Tour 2023
This year's tour is to Norwich - 8th-11th September
3 fixtures this year all starting at 1pm on Friday, Saturday and Sunday
Only 14 spaces open so if you wish to attend please get your deposit paid asap and let Alaric Wade know.
Deposit is £50 to the clubs bank account - please see website for bank details under Membership (hitscricket.com)
Estimated total cost will be around £200 to £220
For any other further questions please contact Alaric Wade.
Kit orders
Rob Palmer will be placing a kit order on Monday so if anyone requires anything please can their orders be with him by this Sunday evening (11/06/2023)
We will not be looking to do another bulk order for a couple of months. If you wish to see sizes and what is on offer please log into the website & visit this link:

Note the link contained on this page requires a password which is supplied, but only if you are logged in!
100 Club
For anyone unfamiliar this is the club lottery run by Steve Huckstepp with the aim of raising funds for club projects.
For example this year we subsided the winter nets and are looking to get a container shed for the match day equipment.
Half your entry money goes to the club and the other half split between the three numbers picked out of the bag every month.
Last month's lucky winners were:
1st S Cooper £67.50
2nd D Hawkins £40.50
3rd J Mitchell Senior £27
If you would be interested in joining and supporting the club please contact Steve or anyone on the Committee for details.
Committee Meeting Notice
For those on the Committee the next meeting will be held 14th June 8pm at Belfairs
To all members if anyone has anything you feel we should discuss please can you let Tim Ward know.
What we would ask of members is ideas to help promote the club and attract new members.
In addition does anyone have good contacts with local schools we can contact to promote the club through?
Match availability update on website
Final piece please can people update their availability on the website for up coming fixtures - even if you can not play.
This makes the job of selecting 33 players at start of the week so much easier for everyone.
All the best to everyone playing this weekend.
Tim
Secretary
