201 7 OFFICIAL HANDBOOK Officials, Rules, Fixtures, Records The Bassetlaw & District Cricket League 07444 322 905 (Saturday Helpdesk - Pre-Match only) Official Handbook [email protected] www.bassetlaw-cricket.org.uk 2017 bassetlawdcl.play-cricket.com www.facebook.com/BDCLofficial , Umpires www.bassetlaw-cricket.org.uk getthegameon.co.uk Foreword When I was invited to be President of the Bassetlaw and District Cricket League for 2017, I was lost for words. Those who know me well will be aware that is something that does not happen very often! It is an honour and a privilege to hold this office. To be the 100th President and only the second lady to hold that office makes it even more of an honour. It is also an honour for Papplewick & Linby Cricket Club to have one of their many volunteers recognised in this way. My love of cricket predates being married to a cricketer and having two cricketing sons. I grew up listening with my father to John Arlott and Brian Johnstone on the radio and I still love the traditional versions of the game but I know like all things cricket must change to survive. It is a fantastic game with all its intricacies, terminology and laws – what is LBW? Why 6 balls in an over? Why 11 players in a team? However, I hear you say, we can play with less than 11 – six‐a‐side tournaments for example; we can have more than 6 balls in an over – some midweek leagues play 8‐ball overs. There is a version of indoor cricket that plays matches of 16 overs, 8 players (4 pairs) in a team with each pair batting for 4 overs known as a skin, with everyone bowling. As Michael said in his Foreword of 2016, we need to embrace change and start to shape our game to ensure it lives on. Michael started the process in discussions with both the League Management Committee and latterly with the clubs and at the AGM. To continue this, the BDCL League Management Committee will be undertaking a process of consultation with all clubs and more importantly with the players in 2017; I will be leading this initiative. Please keep your eyes open for emails, posters etc. informing you of what is happening. The proposals formulated from this consultation will be put to the vote at the 2017 AGM in November. i I hope that I will meet many of you during the 2017 season and get to spend time with you; not just watching our special game but hearing your thoughts about how to continue to move cricket forward so that anyone who wants to take part, whatever their age, skill or experience of cricket; has a style of game that suits their lifestyle and needs. You will find an email address for me in this handbook, just put BDCL consultation as the subject line, I will try to ensure all views, and thoughts are considered. Finally, good luck to all teams for 2017, positive thoughts to keep the rain at bay.
