2015 has begun with the good news that we have a new second team captain for 2015. Tony Burrows takes on the role from Danny Hall and will look to build on Danny’s good work over the last couple of seasons. I’m sure we will all get behind Tony and support him in what is arguable the toughest job in the club!
We can all support the club as we look towards the summer; by encouraging any prospective new players (old or young, experienced or inexperienced) to come along and play cricket at Bradford on Avon. We are always in need of players to bolster our squad so please lets actively recruit! We offer league cricket on Saturdays, a number of friendly games on a Sunday and midweek cricket every week. This is in addition to our ever growing youth cricket, now offering cricket to boys and girls aged 5 to 13. Please get in contact with Matthew Harrington on 07590 713216 or matt@nicholasandharris.co.uk for more information / to register interest in the club.
Our pre-season nets and fixtures have now been booked. Nets will run across 4 Monday evenings from 8pm – 10pm at Warminster Cricket Academy.
