Strategy and MissionNew! |
To all members and friends of Chorleywood Cricket Club,
Please click here for a document describing the kind of Club we want to be
over the next 5 years. We have already started this journey by replacing our
practise nets (as can be seen on Page 6 of the document). Our next project
is to improve our cricket square and replace our pavilion that is nearing
the end of its life. Our Club is a progressive and vibrant cricket club,
but this depends on there being enough members supporting all that needs to
be done to make it so. Also please click here for a simple summary of our
mission and
vision that is encompassed within the document. I hope you will find the
strategy worth reading and support its implementation.
Owen Edis
CWCC Chairman

Peter HarmonNew! |
It is with great sadness that we announce that long time supporter of the Club and social member Peter Harmon (72) died suddenly yesterday.
He was last at the Club on Past Members Day the Sunday before last. Peter and Jean have been associated with the Club since the 1970s when their son Mark played as a wicketkeeper in the Colts. Now their grandson Luis joined the Colts this summer. Our sincere condolences to Jean and the family.

SubscriptionsNew! |
Apparently there are still quite a number of players who have yet to play their Annual Subscriptions - despite a number of reminders and (very clear) instructions on how to do so. If you are one of them, please can you pay up as quickly as possible - this is one of the major sources of revenue for the club that we need in order to keep everything running as it should be.
To emphasise this - all captains have been asked to prioritise the selection of players who have done the decent thing and paid their subs over those that have yet to do so. So - if you haven't paid yet, please do so as soon as possible - you owe what you owe!!!

The next England matchNew! |
As you may have heard, England will be playing Germany in the last 16 of the World Cup on Sunday afternoon. As a result, the Strollers game vs The Red Lion in Chenies due to take place on The Common on Sunday will now start earlier, immediately following the Colts Under-14 match v Tring Park.
The Strollers game itself will be a 20-20 affair and we will then be showing the football in the Pavilion. Mike Norris from The Red Lion will be suuplying some food (inc a BBQ) following the final whistle to help everybody celebrate England's glorious victory.
So, if you can, do come along to The Common on Sunday for what will hopefully be a great afternoon for everybody (except the Germans).

Nets opening ceremony - THIS SUNDAY!!! New! |
As you may be aware, work is just being completed on a complete refurbishment of our practice nets. This has been an expensive project, but one that will be of benefit to all playing members (both senior and colts) as we will have a much improved batting surface and extended bowlers run-ups.
The improved nets will be officially opened by District & County Councillor Chris Heywood at 12.30pm this Sunday (25th April) - after Colt's practice has finished and before our friendly game v St John's Wood. The clubhouse and will be open, the bar will be fully stocked and there will be nibbles for all as well!
So - please do try and come along on Sunday to help celebrate the opening of our new, improved nets and to enjoy (hopefully) another glorious sunny day on Chorleywood Common.

Clubhouse renovations 2010New! |
A message from our Clubhouse secretary, Gary Proctor:
It's that time of year again where we coat the Clubhouse with as much paint and other coverings as we can to stop it falling down. In 2009, through the hard work we put in, we managed to increase the clubhouse facilities score given by visiting teams. It would be great to maintain that in 2010 and also make our club surroundings as pleasant as we can to enhance our enjoyment of the season.
I am scheduling two painting days:
1. - Saturday 27th March 2010 from 9.00am to 12.00 midday for finishing off the internal painting.
2. - Saturday 10th April 2010 again from 9.00am to 12.00 midday for treating the outside of the clubhouse / veranda. In case we are hit by bad weather Saturday 17th will be a 'reserve' day. If this is needed I shall advise.
So please try and find an hour, or two, to drag yourself along with those old painting clothes and help make the club a prettier place to get drunk in! Ten or twelve people for two hours can get a great deal done. Please don't go down the 'someone else will turn up and do it' route as invariable that doesn't happen. Ten people may not sound like many to round up but in reality it always is.
Hope to see many of you on the 27th!!
