Dear club members

On Saturday the 19th of September, Windsor CC will be once again hosting the annual end of season awards party.

This will be held in a specially erected marquee on the C1 outfield in front of the Cricket Pavilion. Dress code is smart evening wear (men to wear the club tie if possible- (on sale from Taz)).

There will be a champagne reception with canapés, a full sit down meal with free wine on the table. We will be giving out playing awards after dinner and a live band will get everybody dancing the night away. There will be a bar open all night as well

The evening will start at 7pm, and dinner will be served about 7.45pm. The band will start at approx 9.30 pm and the party will finish at 1 am

Tickets will be £50 per person but a couples ticket will be £90. Deposits of £15 per person needs to be paid by 18th July and full ticket price to be paid by the 22nd August.

We all had a fantastic time last year and of course players partners, colts, managers, coaches and parents are all very welcome

Please see Taz, Birchy, Christine & James Jordan or Smithy to pay your deposits ASAP

here's to a fantastic party once again.......

All,

Just a quick update on the social front.

A couple of weeks ago saw the Inaugural Slow Race and Bad Shirt Night. Richard Noble 'won' the slow race in his pants which was lovely for all to see. However, with Mohindru, Huggins, Houghton and Nichols still to run in the second heat, the competition is far from over.

Equally as attractive as Richard in his underwear, was Alex Haynes' Bad Shirt which saw him crowned champion of the poor taste competition. A good night was had by all and we raised a bit of money for the club coffers which is always nice!

This weekend we are hosting a 'Three Legged Night' and our annual Stump Racing competition.

In an attempt to revive our student lifestyles we will be hosting a three legged night. For anyone who is unclear as to what this is..... please see below.


We will also be holding a stump racing competition on the outfield which will pit all the XI's against each other. It has yet to be seen whether the three legged night and the stump race can take place simultaneously but each team will need at least 5 participants. After Tug Boat's woeful perfomance on tour, Bri will need to think carefully about his selection policy!

There will also be food available at the clubhouse on Saturday...... so I look forward to celebrating the continued on field success with everyone!

Birchy.

All,

This Saturday not only sees the first league game of 2009, it also sees Windsor CC’s inaugural Slow Race. The race pits some of Windsor’s finest athletes against each other in a 60 metre dash across C1 on Saturday evening.

The idea is for each XI to nominate 2 competitors each, although the rules can be bent if one XI is particularly laden with slowies.

Nominations so far, include:

Kemp. B 2/1
Mohindru. R 1/5
Mallard. C 2/1
Davis. B 10/1
Huggins. P 1/10
Noble. R.W 2/7
Chana. H 1/3
Dawson. R 2/1
Houghton. T 3/1
Light. C 3/2
Doree. A 1/10
Sangha. G (?) Scratching

If anyone wants to nominate anyone else, please let me or the skippers know before Saturday. The race will commence at Dusk (or as soon as everyone is back at the club) on Saturday evening and we will be running a Sweepstake, in the traditions of The Grand National, to see who picks the winner.

We are also having a Bad Shirt night to celebrate the beginning of the league season, so please come dressed to un-impress. Everyone will pay £1 to enter, if your shirt is not deemed bad enough by our resident bad shirt expert, Richard Noble, you will have to pay £3 and the money goes to the winner (who will be expected / forced to buy jugs with it).

There will be food available at the clubhouse as well.

Hopefully we will be celebrating 5 x 25 points on Saturday!
