  • Lapworth Cricket Club RUCIS
    APPENDIX 1 RURAL/URBAN CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT GRANTS APPLICATION FOR 18th MARCH 2020 EXECUTIVE : Applicant : Lapworth Cricket Club Description of scheme: 1. An integral part of cricket is to keep an accurate record of the score on a ball by ball basis which traditionally has been done by the club’s scorers who are situated in the scorebox at the cricket ground. As well as recording the information by hand in a scorebook the scorers also operate manually the numerical numbers in the scorebox which conveys the current score to the players on the field and to the spectators; for many years the club scorer was a key member of the club unfortunately very few clubs now have a dedicated scorer and this task is now undertaken by the players. To actually score the scorebook and maintain the scorebox is complicated and this task is being undertaken by fewer and fewer people with virtually none of these being the club's Junior players. The club plan is to install onto the existing scorebox facia an electronic scoreboard which will be operated by a scorer using an computer software application; the information will be input into the computer and this will automatically update the scorebox therefore eliminating the discrepancies which occur almost every game when done manually. The club believe that with younger people now being very computer savvy this will encourage their Junior players to become efficient scorers for the future therefore safeguarding what is one of the most integral parts of the game of cricket – the score. 2. Lapworth Cricket Club are members of the Cotswold Hills league (CHL), over recent years the CHL Management Committee have been introducing and demanding new standards which member clubs must adhere to, one of these standards is to provide separate changing facilities for the two umpires that are appointed by the CHL to officiate at each CHL game.
