Action from the Sunday Second team defeat to Sunbury
Four new players made their debuts for Merstham's first team, but it was one of last year’s stars who played a key role as they won their opening Fuller’s Brewery Surrey County League Premier Division fixture of the season, giving captain Naveed Saeed a launchpad for a third consecutive promotion.
Despite extensive work by our two groundsmen at Quality Street this week, there will be NO training this Friday and NO games at Quality Street this weekend, senior or junior - however, help is needed on Sunday morning.
With the season fast approaching, it is time for those who want to play cricket - at all levels - to pay their annual subscriptions at Merstham Cricket Club.
Winter has left Quality Street particularly wet. Therefore, a decision was taken after Cricket Force last weekend that the outdoor nets at Quality Street will not be available for use until April 22 - at the very earliest.
​
Merstham Cricket Club's participation in the national NatWest Cricket Force weekend started today with working parties at Quality Street and The Ring.
Merstham Cricket Club will be staging its NatWest Cricket Force weekend on Saturday April 2 and Sunday 3 – this is your chance to volunteer!
We have been contacted by Merstham Football Club, who have the following message:
The last indoor nets session of the winter will take place this Sunday at St Bede's School.
Once winter nets sessions have ended, please do NOT use the nets at Quality Street, because the ground is extremely wet after lots of rain this winter. Coaches, team managers and adult players will be informed when the ground is in a suitable condition to be used for net practice.
The first of two planned social events, a quiz night this Friday, has been cancelled, but the second - a race night - will be held at Merstham Cricket Club on Saturday April 9.
