New Season 2022/23 and Annual General Meeting

Just to give you plenty of advance notice and to let you know of the plans for the first 4 weeks of the season.

The season will start on the 13 August. This is a week earlier than normal but is partly due to the World Cup and possible disruption if the home countries play on a Saturday and also to give us as much flexibility for the season and avoid a backlog at the end which causes problems for the Fixtures Secretary and teams fulfilling their fixtures.

Over the first 4 weeks we are planning to have mid week fixtures as well. Overall this will give us 8 playing days :

Saturdays - August 13,20,27 and September 3

Mid Week - August 16,23,30 and September 6

However we are not expecting everyone to play on all 8 days. The aim is to get each team to play 4/5 fixtures. To help with the planning all teams will have 2 lives to apply for the 4 week period. Please notify Peter Jones the Fixtures Secretary in good time when you would like the lives to apply - the 27 August is the Bank Holiday weekend. We will remind teams of this over the coming weeks .

Teams will still have 1 life after this period as well.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

I will be sending out details of the AGM shortly. The aim is for this to be held on Thursday 23 June but I just need to confirm the venue details.

Any questions please let me know.

Alan Stuttard.
