Match Availability
23rd May 2011
To All Team Members
One of the hardest jobs that enable the club to provide a team each week is that of Team Secretary. This is made doubly difficult when members make themselves available for matches then drop out late in the week or worse on the day of the game leaving the Team Secretary no time to source a replacement.
If you are committing to play games then please make sure you honour that commitment and support those who do a lot of work behind the scenes organising games that enable the the club to keep running.
Your assistance will be very much appreciated.
Thank-you.

This lovely email was sent to the Club Secretary by Teresa Timmins
I was fascinated to see your web site as I was born in Crowhurst 76 years ago in a small house called Groundilly. My grandparents lived there for many years as my grandfather Percy Austin worked on the railway line. I well remember coming to the cricket field as grandad used to umpire and grandma used to help with the teas.
I was then Teresa Tomlin (Teresa Timmins for the last 53 years)
Every good wish to he club
