2010 - The Next Step

Welcome to the Alfreton CC Blog. As the new 2010 season approaches let's hope for that Barbecue summer we keep getting promised.

2010 is likely to be a pivotal year for Alfreton Cricket Club. We have been extremely busy over the winter, not only ensuring we meet new Premiership guidelines on ground facilities but also working very hard with our Project Management Team for the new Pavilion and Clubroom development.

We are also looking to secure funding for a complete refurbishment of our artificial wicket, we can never say for certain, but we are reasonably confident we can deliver this in the early part of the season.

The main square received levelling and major re-dress at the end of last season, to the tune of around £1500 most of which was funded by the ECB. The square at Alfreton Grange Arts College was also re-dressed, but more significantly turned around!

We have recruited again through the winter, and I welcome all our new members and players. We are delighted to have the services of Matt Lineker again this season, Matt has proved to be the outstanding player in the Premiership for the last two seasons, and it is a delight to have him back with us.

Alfreton Cricket Club has a new vision and ambition, which the Committee know with your full support we can deliver.
