Bretton CC
All voted into the League and welcomed by the Chairman REPORTS Chairman The Chairman thanked all clubs for a great season Secretary The Secretary reported that Spen Valley Cricket
Development Group had some places available for Level one coaching costing
around £100. They were to start in early January and anybody interested
needed to book places by 17th December. Details were available
on the website. The Secretary said he was hoping to get a comprehensive
list together of fines and penalties that will be incurred if clubs made
any rule infringements. This was to help the Emergency Committee make
penalties and fines be as consistent as possible. In effect this would be
similar to the one used by the CYCL. The Secretary had been approached by the Bradford
Junior League with the idea of adopting ID cards for junior members and
asked if this could be done as a joint venture with our League. A straw
poll was to taken as to whether the Member Clubs wished for the Secretary
to make further enquiries into this. No clubs were interested Accounts The Treasurer reported that the cost of running the
League had never really been known but he could say fairly accurately that
it was in the region of £1,500 / £1,600 per annum. There was a loss of £1,600 for the year this was
mainly due to the write down of old/existing clothing stock to zero.
The Treasurer reported that the League had £12,000 in the bank.
Accounts agreed and accepted
by all The
Treasurer was thanked for all his good work. Grants Tony Larvin reported to the Club representatives that
from 2009 the grant application system was changing and he was in talks to
find out how this would take place in the future.
He explained that not enough clubs were asking for grants
individually, especially for capitol expenses such as building upgrades
and clubs were encouraged to make more use of available grants. A letter had been distributed to the member clubs which
had been received from New Farnley CC regarding the format of under 17
cricket. Members from New Farnley CC explained the concept of their
proposals and the reasons behind it. A short discussion followed where the
view was that the climate was not favourable to having a game played with
a on week space between innings. It was also noted that players at that
age group should be playing senior cricket and hence the longer format.
One representative mentioned the Wakefield Union which played a 40 over
game on a Sunday where the rules were that a team had to contain a number
of juniors in it and this may be an option for clubs wishing to develop
older juniors. No
action taken Rule
