Great to see so many games play up & down the divisions today, massive shout out to the grounds teams for what must have been a huge effort to get pitches prepared 👏👏👏👏

🏏IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT COUNTING TO SIX 🏏
Northantsaco (Umpires and Scorers) are running an open day for club umpires or anyone that wants to attend.
The day is designed to help and give the attendees a better understanding of umpiring.
The venue is Northamptonshire CCC
DM Graham Abbott for details.

Quality control taking place ahead of the new season. Fascinating insight into the production behind the Dukes balls.

Season getting closer!

Premier League T20 fixtures are now available on Play Cricket, many thanks to a couple of clubs for accommodating requests which have enabled us to fulfil this without too many complications.
Women’s midweek fixtures are now complete & just being checked for errors, uploaded soon

I’ve been asked, so I will clarify on here too as I’m sure if one club is asking they aren’t alone.

Tier 1 has NOT changed to pink ball coloured kit all season. WLD matches are red ball, W/L matches are pink. Coloured kit optional for pink ball matches.

Thank you to Wellingborough Town CC for hosting and to the 33 people that attended our first Women & Girls’ conference. 🙌

We covered the growth of cricket, Player Pathway/MCC Hub, Volunteering, Funding & Facilities. 🏏

We're looking forward to making this a yearly activity. 🤝
