The Under 13's and Under 17's will play on a Thursday Evening with a 6.30 start.
Could I remind parents for home games that we would like the youngsters down the ground 30 minutes prior to the start to assist in setting up the ground and also warm up.
TRAINING NIGHT
The Junior Training Evening will be Monday Eevenings Nights from 6.30 - 8pm down at the club in Jone Lane.
The Club currently has seven club coaches and several senior players will be on hand to support.
When the youngsters are asked to practice their batting they will be kitted out with bat, pads, gloves, helmet.
First aiders are on hand should an accident occur.
There is a charge of £2 for the coaching to assist with the club funds.
Newcomers are always welcome
MATCH FEES
There will be a match fee of £2.50 per game to assist with the club costs.
The Jones Lane Ground and Clubouse is shared between ourselves and Hythe & Dibden Football Club. Though our season is only for four months from May 1st to August 31st - the cost of the facility to us is £3840 a year. Last year through funding we raised 9.1k to purchase a new artificial which is used for training, & Under 9's & 11's matches. It also provides a safer surface for the kids to be coached on.
CODE OF CONDUCT
Hythe & Dibden has a 'Code of Conduct' which is situated on the notice board just inside the main clubhouse.
The 'Code of Conduct' is for everyone associated with the club - adult teams, colts, spectators and parents.
Should anyone be in breach of our ' Code of Conduct ' then it will be taken to the club committee and in a worse case the member found guilty will be asked to leave the club.
Hythe & Dibden Cricket Club has a reputation of being a friendly club and we wish to maintain that reputation.
SUMMARY
Everyone at Hythe appreciates the hard work that has gone in to making our Junior Section what it is today. Richie and Sue Froggett and their band of coaches and helpers haveworked their socks off to build up a fantastic platform for the clubs future. 2011 saw two sides make it to the Finals Day at Langley Manor - there's no reason why that success can't happen again in 2013.
All our senior members accept that the Juniors are the future of the club and every effort will be made to support Richie and Sue Froggett in maintaining the Junior Section. If we can find just one or two more Matt Howe's or Simon Wright's a season through the Junior Section then I am sure Hythe & Dibden will remain playing at the top level of the Hampshire League set up for many years to come.
Our club made a committment a few years ago that the adult Sunday XI and the Tony Woodhouse Trophy would be used to bring colts into adult Cricket. Sunday Skipper Rob Saunders has committed to taking this forward in 2013. If a youngster is ready for that step up, then we will ask the payer and their parents if we can approach them to play. If they enjoy it then hopefully they will play for Hythe for many season to come.
