The WMCC Tour 2013
Following last year’s successful September tour to the Isle of Wight, work is now progressing to organise the tour for 2013.
We must offer a huge vote of thanks to Geoff Reddin for his outstanding work in organising an excellent tour last year, from transport and accommodation to competitive fixtures and even the weather. Geoff has reluctantly given up the organising reins for this year, but we are nevertheless keen to build on the success that the 2012 Tour generated, and install it as a permanent highlight in the fixtures calendar once the rigours of the league season are over.
We are aware that the following 10 club members have already expressed an interest in a 2013 Tour which is tremendous.
Mark Beames, Manoj Tripathi, Craig Marshall, Keith Mitchell, Andy Brown, Neil Smith, Ollie Glasson, David Glasson, Kev Wright, Connor Hayman,
For obvious reasons, this number is not sufficient to run a touring side, and we will be looking for up to 15 players.
The tour is open to all members, including the ladies, and we would like to offer the opportunity to all club members that would wish to tour to let Mark Beames & Kev Wright know as soon as possible so that fixtures can be organised with some certainty and that we will have a team to fulfil each of them.
As with all touring parties, coaches, scorers, supporters and Mums and Dads are all as much a part of the success of the tour as the actual matches themselves and would be more than welcome.
The date of the Tour is to remain as the same weekend from last year, and will run from Friday the 6
th of September through till Monday 9
th of September 2013.
We are proposing one 25/25 on Friday evening following our arrival followed by three 40 over games on the Saturday Sunday and Monday.
We plan to organise accommodation over 3 nights: Friday, Saturday and Sunday; returning after the game on Monday.
If you have any questions or wish to discuss anything please do not hesitate to call Mark on 07718585798 or Kev on 07867784379 or via email beames2@btinternet.com or kevw807@gmail.com
Woodham Mortimer Cricket Club needs you!! We look forward to hearing from you.
