SHEPSHED TOWN

Captains
for 2013

Welcome to the Shepshed Town web site, if you are just visiting this site please feel free to browse. Should you need further information then please visit the contacts page where a contact list is provided.
Shepshed Town welcomes cricketers of all ages and abilities, coaching sessions are arranged at all age groups. We operate under the umbrella of the Leicestershire and Rutland Cricket Board. We are Clubmark accredited and an ECB focus club. We also operate a strict child welfare policy. All of our Coaches, Captains and officials have CRB checks and the system is administered by a Welfare Officer.

Volunteers are required for the 2013 season to score (BOTH INNINGS) for the 1st XI matches this season. This is a new requirement by the League and teams without a scorer will be fined AND have 3 points per match deducted. We are not specifically looking for ONE person to do the whole season but a few (or more) who will share the scoring between them over the whole season. Scorers traditionally get a free tea during the match! Additionally there are courses available from the ECB. Qualified scorers MAY also be paid £10.00 per match (subect to Committee approval)

MESSAGE FROM THE SELECTION COMMITTEE

With effect from today (30th April) any player that withdraws himself from a match having been selected for it WILL be expected to play in the next lower team in the next match that they are available to play in. If, however, the player has given advance notice of their unavailability (ie before the weekly selection meeting) this will not apply

If the reason for a players late withdrawal is completely unavoidable; such as illness or injury,  the selection committee will make a decision based on individual circumstances.

It is important that players notify their availability in advance. With this in mind, in the very near future the selection committee will publish a list to enable you to advise of any occasions that you will be unavailable for selection due to work, holiday or other commitments. This will greatly assist the difficult process of selecting teams.
