TASKFORCE - Sat 29th March and Sat 5th April
A Taskforce of
volunteer Players from Caribbean Mix CC (CMCC), London West Indies Mix CC
(LWIMCC) and Streatham Marlborough CC (SMCC) started work on Saturday 29th March 2014 to
maintain and improve the area of the cricket square and immediate surrounding
grass land. Today they were clearing up winter debris and spreading fertiliser.
Other tasks will include re-seeding the outfield area in readiness for the new
season and trimming some low overhanging branches of nearby trees. The season
will start on Sat 26th April CMCC vs BOW GREEN 1.30pm Start.
This volunteer taskforce
activity around the cricket square is under the supervision of Paul Harper and
Luke, from Glendale Services. This morning Luke was training them He is pleased
that the cricket clubs are taking an active role in maintaining the space.
Both Clubs play
Kent Regional Cricket League (KRCL) - METRO 1 Division, as part of the
‘Regeneration of Cricket’ by Lewisham Council in Mayow Park, under direction
from Martin Hyde of Lewisham Greenscene.
The Friends of
Mayow Park (FOMP) have been kept informed relating to cricket facilities. The
cricketers have a proposal, agreed with
Greenscene, for a storage container behind the newly restored Pavilion, housing
two heavy rollers which will enable weekly rolling and necessary maintenance of
the cricket square.
England Cricket Board (ECB) has made an investment of
£50,000 relaying the cricket Square for the development of cricket in Lewisham,
with a further investment at Hilly Fields.
Lancashire need just two wickets to complete a heavy innings victory, but many of Northamptonshire's batsmen fought as hard as they were able on the third day.
