Dear Members,
We find ourselves
in a strange limbo, the announcement last week from the PM regarding the return
of recreational
cricket contradicted all the positive noises we were hearing from the ECB
and Herts League.
As far as the
league are concerned we are still to prepare for an 11th July start. This may
seem
fairly bullish -
especially for official league cricket, but as we have seen, guidelines can shift with
little notice and
time to prepare.
Whatever happens we
do think there will be some form of cricket this season.
It is likely that
there will be some adaptations to comply with whatever the guidelines are -
shorter format,
reduced player
numbers, no teas, no shining ball etc.
So the club and
captains can start to prepare, could i ask you all to update your availability
on the website for the
remaining dates in the season.

We need to know
whether or not we as a club will be over or under subscribed for the cricket
available.
We want to ensure as much as possible that those who want a game, can
get one.
Look out for
further updates.
Thanks
James
