Matt Couchman - knee injury update

Unfortunately Matt is going to miss the rest of the season after learning his knee has been dislocated for the past three months and will require one, possibly two surgeries. He also has some cartlidge floating around in there which will need cleaning out.


Best wishes from everyone in the club Matt and hopefully you’ll be back for the start of next year.

Regarding the proposed re-organisation of the WCL leagues.

The WCL Management Board

Notification is given to all clubs in the Wetherby Cricket League of a Special General Meeting ( Rule 8.7 refers)  to be held at the Wetherby Council Chambers on Tuesday 20th July 2010 commencing at 7pm.

We the undersigned wish to put the following proposal in front of all the clubs in the Wetherby Cricket League:

Revised Division 6 Table

The offically revised table taking into account Wighill 'A''s removal from the league can now be seen here.

Wighill Park (Home) - 17th July 2010

Due to the league ruling as per directly below this post, this home game has now been cancelled. It remains to be seen whether the League will attempt to re-jig the fixtures to fill this week in for us, or whether it might be possible to arrange a friendly match of some description. We also have a week off (as per the original fixtures) on the 4th September, again the above applies here also. Any suggestions are welcome...

Wighill Park - In breach of League Rules

What a farce.

Wighill Park 'A'  have, despite their best efforts, been unable to fulfill four of their Division Six fixtures this season and are therefore in breach of League rules.

21.9b Any side failing to fulfil a WCL league fixture, for any reason other than weather, on FOUR occasions within the same season shall be expelled from the Division and have their results expunged from the league table.

Confirmation has been received from Wighill Park CC that will not be appealing against the sanctions laid down within the rule. The consequences of this for the remaining clubs in Division Six are as follows..

1. All points gained in matches against Wighill Park 'A' to date will be removed from the League table.

2. All Wighill Park 'A' fixtures will be cancelled.

This will result in teams finishing the season having not all played an equal number of games. A further statement will be issued on this subject shortly

Should any club require further clarification regarding any of the above please do not hesitate to contact me.

WCL Match Secretary

Week 12 - Match Reports

The Week 12 match reports are now available. Tables will follow.

More Tea Vicar?

As you know Sally usually makes the tea, but being pregnant is making her a little more tired than usual and so i'm looking for people to step in and make some sandwiches for the remaining home games. Sally will hopefully still make her delicious cakes! The remaining home games needing teas are as follows:

17th July - Wighill Park
31st July - South Milford
21st August - Bramham & Clifford
28th August - Yorkshire Post

If you can help out please let me know on a Saturday, or e-mail at the usual address.
