Cricket Shropshire Newsletter August 16 2013 Vol. 3 Issue 7 Volume 5 Issue 1 2016 Cricket Shropshire Newsletter The Official Home of Cricket in Shropshire www.shropshirecricketboard.co.uk Exciting times ahead as Cricket Shropshire and Shropshire CCC work in partnership The leading bodies in Shropshire cricket will now work closer together for the long-term benefit of the game in the county as they strive to form a clearer player pathway. Shropshire County Cricket Club and the Shropshire Cricket Board together with all cricket clubs in the county have formed a closer alliance to ensure a bright future locally for the game. A growing number of exciting cricketers have emerged from the Shropshire junior set up to enjoy successful careers in the first-class game in recent times, including England batsman James Taylor, Jack Shantry, Joe Leach, Ed Barnard, Adam Shantry, Dan Redfern and Joe Clarke, who recently received his first call up to represent England Lions. Now Shropshire cricket officials believe working closer together can only help create a clearer player pathway for more talented youngsters to progress through the junior ranks to eventually play Unicorns Championship cricket for the county. Promising young players have long had the chance to play for the Shropshire Cricket Board sides from under-10 to under-17 level. Shropshire County Cricket Club's senior team compete in the Unicorns Championship while they also run a development side for under-21 players - and that side will now be run in partnership with the Shropshire Cricket Board to help bridge the gap for youngsters stepping up from junior representative cricket.

In the absence of any Second XI cricket and the One Day Cup competition, the Bob Willis Trophy reports have been expanded to include a write up for each day’s play as well as the full scorecards. Sadly all fixtures were played behind closed doors so hopefully these extended reports will enable readers to get the feeling of actually being at the game! In addition, the Somerset Women’s team reports plus the Boys and Girls Pathway write ups are included in the first half of the book as they now come under the remit of Somerset CCC rather than the Somerset Cricket Board.

  • Chairman's Report AGM Wed 6Th January 2010
    Chairman’s Report AGM Wed 5th January 2011 INTRODUCTION A warm welcome to all our members for our 172nd AGM.arguably the clubs most successful cricket season since 1839.- not forgetting the year containing the same numbers 1983. CRICKET REVIEW If I can start by reminding you all of our cricketing aims for 2010 TO AIM FOR A TOP SIX FINISH IN THE BDPL PREMIERSHIP RETAIN OUR STATUS IN THE 2ndXI PREMIER DIVISION , SHROPSHIRE CRICKET LEAGUE DIV 3 & DIV 7 TO ENTER A TEAM IN THE SHREWSBURY EVENING LEAGUE TO FURTHER DEVELOP THE YOUNG TALENT IN THE CLUB. I think you will see from the following report that we achieved these targets and more. As the season finally unravelled and the dust started to settle back in September I wrote a note to all the captains ‘’As I spent the last weekend of the season watching our 3rd XI play out a very exciting match loss, witnessed our very youthful 4th XI taking on, and nearly beating, a Much Wenlock 3rdXI ? (2nd XI? 1stXI) and on Sunday watch our U14's win the County Final at Wellington possibly for the 5th consecutive year. I reflected on what must be the most successful season in our illustrious history. Many, many thanks for an outstanding season across the board and for all your hard work, which has helped Shrewsbury CC, get to, and stay at, the pinnacle of Shropshire, Midlands and National cricket. In due course there will be presentations and celebrations but in the mean time there is much work to be done.

  • Sponsoring Shrewsbury Cricket Club Sponsoring Sponsoring Shrewsbury Shrewsbury Cricket Club Cricket Club Be Part of Shropshire’S Most Successful Ever Cricket Club
    SPONSORING SHREWSBURY CRICKET CLUB BE PART OF SHROPSHIRE’S MOST SUCCESSFUL EVER CRICKET CLUB Buoyed by the recent success enjoyed by the national team, cricket is enjoying a popular time at the top of the game and this is having a knock on effect at grass roots level. Nowhere is this better reflected than in the continued success achieved by Shrewsbury Cricket Club’s teams, with three national championships, 12 league titles, 18 cup wins and countless junior victories since the new millennium. Allied to this is the recent individual achievements of some of our players with no fewer than five earning full-time contracts with first-class county sides, ten being selected for Worcestershire’s Academy and over 20 representing Shropshire’s Minor Counties side. More recently, James Taylor (England senior side) and Ed Barnard (England U19s) have achieved national recognition. With four adult’s teams competing in league cricket on Saturdays and a 120 strong junior section boasting a total of 10 teams alongside both women’s and girl’s teams, Shrewsbury can arguably lay claim to being Shropshire’s premier cricket club. The men’s first team currently plays at the highest level they possibly can in the Birmingham and District Premier Cricket League Premier Division. Our second XI competes in division one of the reserve competition whilst our third and fourth teams continue to provide a stepping stone for the club’s talented youngsters to progress into the first eleven and beyond. As a club, we are looking to expand on this level of achievement and the growth of cricket in Shrewsbury by offering the chance for external organisations to become a part of the success that is Shrewsbury Cricket Club, through a range of sponsorship opportunities.
