Willow Talk #12 - week ending 15th February
From Andy Rees
Presentation night: Keep Tuesday 24 March free for our presentation night. It will be a similar format to last season, with team awards and a BBQ followed by club awards in the hall.
Award nominations. We are circulating awards nominations forms to all coaches, managers and stage coordinators. Please send returns to our Secretary, Chris Duffy. Please be aware, the committee votes on the nominations we receive from teams and stages to determine award winners. This season we have restructured the awards categories, aligning them to stages, and this year for the first time, adding a coach of the year award. Club awards are:
- Senior Cricketer of the Year
- Colts player of the year
- Stage 3 player of the year
- Stage 2 player of the year
- Stage 1 player of the year
- Emerging Batter award
- Emerging Bowler award
- Spirit of Cricket Award
- Coach of the year award
- Presidents award
Year book stats: Coaches and managers will also be asked to complete year book stats and return through stage coordinators to Secretary Chris Duffy. Could all submissions please be returned by 16 March. Expect templates and guidance in the coming week.
School Open Evening: MCCCC will run a cricket information desk at the school open evening Friday 20 March. We are looking for a few stage 3 or Colts boys to help run some cricket inspired activities and introduce a new generation of players to the club. If this sounds like your player, please let Andy R or Scott F know.
Season review and AGM: As always the club will welcome suggestions on how to advance for next season at a season review after season’s end. Please put ideas through stage coordinators. Our committee will regenerate at an AGM in Mid-May. We will welcome new participants and encourage our existing team to stay involved. If you are interested in a role please let us know.
