2020-21 U18 Cricket - Chairmans update
16th November 2020
To all of our league teams,
I have had further advice from the ECB via HCB at link here
regarding cricket this season for our League where there is some good and bad
news.
The bad news is that unfortunately, cricket for
our adult teams (over 18) is not currently permitted. This is extremely
regrettable and I hope that this position will change for the better in the
near future.
But the very good news is that I am pleased to
inform you that our Junior teams (Under 18) can return, but under strict
Covid-19 guidance where we are presently in discussions with Places Leisure,
Eastleigh to hopefully commence playing these games during revised times of 09:30
to 16:30 on Sundays from the beginning of January 2021.
To facilitate this proposed start, could I
please ask you to indicate if you would like to enter team(s) in either our U14
or U16 Leagues by completing your on-line application form(s) here (Registrations Fee
applicable will be pro rata based on number of games scheduled to be
played). To make the necessary scheduling arrangements I would really
appreciate a response by the 30th November at the latest.
These are difficult times and I sincerely hope
that all cricket will return soon. In the meantime, thank you for your
continued support and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
As a result of the recent Government tightening of Covid-19 regulations,
Places Leisure (PL) have informed the League that No Indoor Cricket will
played at Eastleigh in the foreseeable future.
Therefore, we regret to inform you that this Seasons (2020-21)
planned start date of Sun, 1st Nov is not now possible, but in the meantime I can inform you that Sport England have
published an update and a Frequently Asked Questions link and whilst we will be
guided by this information we also have to acknowledge PL will have the final
decision when indoor cricket resumes at Eastleigh.
In light of this information, your League Committee is
taking the position that whilst these measures by PL are wholly justified in
the current climate we remain positive that we may, as outdoor cricket did this
season play some form of indoor Cricket played later (structure to be decided
at the time) in this Winter season.
Because of these most challenging times
your Committee have decided to issue refunds to clubs for both the 2020/21Registration
Subscriptions already paid and any carried over credit balances from the 2019/20
season. Also, all outstanding monies due to the league by clubs are to be paid
by 16th Octoberand informing any clubs owing funds
after this date will not be eligible for consideration to enter the league
when it resumes!
Lastly, be assured the Committee
will keep you updated on any further developments. However, please do not
hesitate to contact us atcommittee@shicl.co.uk if you have any further
queries or concerns and stay safe in these difficult times.
