INTER-TEAM ASSISTANCE
Tony Clarke expressed his displeasure at the level of support given to the 3rd XI with regards to umpiring, even when other teams within the Club were playing at the same venue. Peter Elgey said that he would ensure help from the 1st XI when applicable, by requesting volunteers or the use of a rota system.
CLUB CLOTHING
The possibility of obtaining new Club shirts and/or tracksuits via the Club sponsor "Alphatec" was discussed. It was suggested that a pool of Training tops could be acquired which members could then purchase. Details of the possibilities are to be sorted at the next Committee Meeting.
