Greystones Cricket - Club Notices

We are going to have a very busy off-season, in fact its so busy it barely feels like an off season at all, and best of all none of the activities can be affected by the weather!
 
While we have had a fantastic first year, we need to press on to make year 2 even better, and for that we need your help. I have attached a very short survey which I would really like you to complete before the 8th of October if possible. It just asks you what you can do for your Cricket Club. It will only take 2 or 3 minutes to complete and it would really help the Club out.
 
We are also giving notice of our AGM which will be a GRFU on Wednesday 17th October at 7.00pm, all members are encouraged to come along, as its your chance to voice how you feel the club should be run. If you want to have any particular topic discussed (formally - submit a motion) then please send the details to the Club Secretary (Me) by the 8th of October.
 
As you know our end of season President dinner and prize night will be held on the 19th October in the Glenview hotel. If you haven't booked your tickets yet please get in touch with Pottsie on 0872501608, I'm sure it will be a great night out.

We have also organised an 8-a-side indoor cricket competition, this will be for 90 minutes on Saturday afternoons in Shoreline Leisure from October through to January and details will be posted on the website www.greystonescricket.com  If you are interested in playing, even if for only one match, as places are limited and thee seems to be quite a bit of interest. Match fees have not been finalised but are expected to be about €4.50 - Please use the survey link to tell us your availability

Following that we will have our pre-season skills sessions for Juniors and Seniors in Shoreline on Monday evenings. This is for Juniors from 6pm to 7pm and for seniors from  8pm to 9.30pm. Everyone is welcome to join in the fun and more  details will be available on our site later in the year.

GREYSTONES CRICKET - DIVISION 12 CHAMPIONS!!

Picture
Fantastic news - our first year produces a title. Greystones Cricket are proud champions of Leinster Division 12!

Between the rain, the matches have been fantastic and Greystones are the only club in Leinster to still be undefeated. There is one match left to play (due on the 22nd September) and we all have our fingers crossed for a 100% season.

Congratulations to all the players who contributed to this great successful first season.
 

UPDATE

After a tense few weeks waiting on decisions under rule 9.3.3  - its been confirmed that Greystones 1st are the undefeated champions of Division 12


Meet the first ever first team ...

Picture
For us, this 'the' historic club photo - our first ever first team.

Despite a pretty poor forecast, and the many difficulties we have faced in getting our own facilities ready due to the weather and other restrictions outside of our control, the guys all put their cricketing brains into high gear on Monday 7th May 2012 and headed out to Wesley College for our first competitive match.

Unfortunately, due to the atrocious weather, the match was eventually abandoned shortly into the Greystones innings, where a target of 176 had been set if we were to win.
