Merstham Under 15s win League and Cup Double
As most of you are aware, Merstham Cricket Club is one of the largest cricket clubs in the county by membership, and plays a major role in the local community. We have 4 League Sides competing on a Saturday, 1 on a Sunday and 2 friendly Sunday sides, as well as juniors from under 8s up to under 17s. We use various methods to reach out to the local community including twitter (@mersthammagics), our wonderful website www.mersthamcc.co.uk and through the local paper, The Surrey Mirror. We have been given an opportunity to report live on local radio station Susy Radio on 103.4 (www.susyradio.com) on their Saturday music and sport show which runs between 2 and 6pm. This would be an ideal opportunity for any budding young journalists out there to get some valuable media experience, or for anyone who has always fancied the chance to speak live on air. There are also opportunities for people to have their written reports printed on a regular basis in the Surrey Mirror. We would also love some help with scoring for our senior games if anyone would be interested. Please let me know at edward.loader@rbc.com if you would be interested in helping out the club and gaining some experience which could look great on a CV/UCAS form etc.. . We will be able to provide lifts to the games and you will get a free tea.
The Annual Dinner and Dance with Senior Presentations is taking place at the Reigate Manor on Friday 12 October. Please read the flyer for more details.
We will be running a come and try training session especially for girls. Please read the flyer for more details.
U11 win
Merstham CC U11 won the Capel 6 A Side Tournament this Sunday. Well done to all the team.
Thank you to all those who braved the weather to attend the opening of the new Pavillion. Without the help of all those who gave their support to the project, either with their time, materials or financial backing the club would not be able to look forward to enjoying the fantastic new facilities for many seasons to come.
Please read the attached news story from the Clubber.
