There are still more tasks to complete so there will be another working party on Good Friday March 30th from 10:00 am onward. Can you help? Please do try to join us and prepare YOUR club for April 14th when the season opens.

Tasks still outstanding include:

  • Prepare the nets and net area for training and practice
  • Check covers, wheels, tyres, leaks, etc.

Cricket will start on April 14th whatever the weather. For Ashford to promote itself as well as it can and for all members to thoroughly enjoy their experience at Ashford, pre-season work is essential. Please don't leave all this work to the same old faces. Whatever your strengths, whatever your expertise, we can find something to suit.
