Thanks for those who came along to the new ground yesterday, I'm sure you will all agree that the pitch played remarkably well and looks in great condition to play some cricket on later this season. We will do the same thing next Wednesday, weather permitting. If some of you could send me your own personal views as to how you thought the pitch played yesterday then we can feed back this to the contractors. (Just a one liner I can quote will be fine). This will give us more leverage when we approach them to play some competitive games later this month and in August.

Here are the teams this weekend, all players meet at the pavilion at the earlier time of 12.00pm, especially the 1st XI who will be presented with their Monkfield Arms sponsored shirts by the landlord Duncan.
