The League's agm was held last night. Here are a few bits and bobs that may be of interest.
- All Divisions - The season will run from 1st May to 28th August. A proposal to change the points system which came within a whisker of being passed last year was convincingly defeated this time.
- Div 1 - The Eastern Regional Academy under 19s will play a Sunday away game against each of the Div 1 club sides during the first 12 weeks or so of next season. Full points will be up for grabs but the Academy side will not feature in the league table. ESCA will provide umpires and contribute £65 to each Div 1 side to defray expenses.
- Div 1 again - As the SNCL is leaning on its member clubs to provide at least one umpire next season, Sandy Scotland thinks it is likely that there will be more umpires available for East League games next season. I'll let you decide whether this is a good thing or not (especially as most of the newly available umpires are likely to be pretty inexperienced), but please try not to be too rude in any comments.
- Divs 5 & 8 - The standard starting time for the 2nds and 3rds has been brought forward to 1pm. While it will still be possible for clubs to agree a later start, you have been warned, especially you, Gerry.
- Div 8 - Musselburgh 3rds were admitted to the division.

Ken will be interested to hear that a group of players from SMRH have declared independence and formed their own cricket club. Although they were too late to be included in Div 8 officially at the AGM, it is very likley indeed that they will take part next year at a venue which is nearly arranged.
ReplyDeleteWill SMRH manage to get 3 sides? they say they will try to do so, using more juniors.
