Sunday 19^th sees the first game of the season against Brockham Green venue at the home of cricket…..Ewhurst Cricket Club. Sorry for the long mail but need to communicate some changes, news and support needed from yourselves so the club can keep better in contact, there some news about the bar at the end so keep reading.

Here you’ll also see a tab called Social media logins where you can now link your ECC website profile with your social media account these include Google. Facebook and Twitter this will then allow you to login using your social media account.

For the playing members please start entering your availability so the captains can better plan for the weeks ahead, this will also help as we are arranging additional fixtures for Saturdays and need to know in advance what weekends we can field two teams.

Some players have already started entering and thanks to those players for your support.

During the season you’ll also be able to pay match fees via PayPal within the mobile site.

Oops nearly forgot the news about the bar. This season we are introducing a 10% discount on the bar for all fully paid members and as a further bonus there is a discount on subscriptions paid in full before the first league game. This years subscription have unfortunately been increase due to increased running cost for your club and will be £80 reduced to £70 until 2nd May for full member and £40 reduced to £35 for students but with the bar discount this still make ECC the best value for money in Surrey. 

So hears to a prosperous season for the Ewes and look forward to catch up with you all.

Thanks

Keith
