New South Weald CC Season Announcement 2021 - Posted 5th April

Playing Summary

Nets will officially start from Wednesday 7th April. This will of course be subject to the weather and COVID Guidelines (see full details at bottom of page). As per usual, nets will be on the back-pitch until the end of April where we can start using the main pitch.

The club plans to use 'Doodle' for availability in the 2021 season as this proved a success last year. More details will follow later in the week.

Our first pre-season game is on Saturday 17th April which is a home game against Abridge.

There is currently no game planned for the 18th, but if we cannot find any opposition then the club will look to arrange an inter-club T20 friendly.
