Barbara Ryder, right middle
We as a club community are sad to announce today, on what would have been her birthday, the death of another club stalwart, Barbara Ryder.
Barbara - wife to Paul, a former captain and chairman and an active player for many years as well as our club auditor until very recently - was well known around the club in her own right. She had been a tea lady and a lively presence for many years around the club. Given the many messages of condolence we have already had, she was a much loved supporter of Merstham Cricket Club. Our thoughts and condolences are with Paul and his family at this time.While cricket activity - playing and practising - remains suspended after last night's announcement by the Government, we will be holiding a second Covid-19 Cricket Tea with a Difference, to support local charities.
We had fantastic support from members and the local community on May 2, for our Covid-19 Cricket Tea with a Difference - so we are holding another this Saturday, May 16 from 2-5pm.
Hundreds of items were collected at Merstham Cricket Club by members and the community for two food banks and the Stripey Stork charity on Saturday.

Dear Members,
View from the Ring clubhouse
Merstham Cricket Club is applying to the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs for consent under section 38 of the Commons Act 2006 to carry out restricted works on Earlswood Common. The Planning Inspectorate will decide the application on behalf of the Secretary of State.
The proposed works are: For a rear extension to the cricket pavilion, to provide equipment storage.
Merstham Cricket Club continues to be guided by the England and Wales Cricket Board regarding health and safety and the coronavirus.
We have now been told by the ECB that all forms of cricket activity - from indoor training to matches and social gatherings - must be suspended. Therefore there will be no further sessions at St Bede's (adults and junior boys) or the Royal Alexandra and Albert School (girls). The indoor cricket leagues have also now closed.
