Southgate Compton Cricket Club

Club and AGM update 12th Nov

We hope that you and your families are all keeping well.

The summer and shortened, but very successful cricket season for SCCC, are now distant memories with the clocks going back and the weather getting wetter and colder.

Following the announcement of a further month's lockdown the clubhouse has had to close again. The SOSA committee will be monitoring the situation and will re-open the club as soon as is allowable, adapting to whatever restrictions may be imposed at the time.

We would normally be holding the AGM now, to review the past season and to start to plan for next season. A Face to Face AGM is definitely the most preferable option, but we clearly can't do this at present. Therefore we will see what the beginning of December brings and will look to get a date in for the AGM as soon as we can.

In the meantime, at least there is some live cricket to watch with England's forthcoming tour of South Africa.

End of season

In the end it was great to get some cricket in when many, myself included doubted we would get any in. Thanks to all the committee and other volunteers to get cricket on for both adults and the colts.

A good season where the 1XI managed an unbeaten run all year in a great team effort, a special mention goes to Cameron for his 126 runs in just 3 innings while also averaging 9 with the ball.

Sunday's were also a good mix of wins and loses but every game was played in the right spirit and was throughly enjoyable, with uncertain times lets hope we can get back to winter nets next year and maybe even another promotion in the season!
