The cricket season is underway and we are just back from a very enjoyable if chilly afternoon at Lord's. It will be our turn soon.......
Thanks to everyone who turned out for work rota last week, it was the best turn out for some years! But we still have loads to do so please try and pop over to the club this weekend in your work gear and help out. Pavilion will be open from 9am both days so please come and do your bit.
I'm delighted to advise that we have been successful in a bid that we put forward to the ECB's World Cup fund. The award was £1,000 that had to have a technology application, so we are able to buy ourselves a new TV and an iZettle reader which will complete our popular contactless card system. We have now broken the £50,000 barrier of third party funding since I've been Chairman. Massive thanks to Gleno, Steve Gilmore and the whole of management for their support!
I think that's it for me, just to say that we have x3 friendly games on 28th April, 4th May and 5th May before the league games start. Please give your availably to TC or Andy Mac.
I say it in every mail because it is true; NECC is as much your club as it is mine and all of us on Management. If you have any ideas, suggestions, observations or thoughts about anything re. our club then please let me know.
Many thanks for reading my mails and with very best wishes
James
