5 EARLY GROUND INSPECTION PROCEDURES IN THE EVENT OF PROLONGED BAD WEATHER
2012 saw considerable disruption across the League as a result of bad weather and there were numerous instances of Clubs travelling to away games in the knowledge that their game was highly unlikely to be played due to the weather. In an effort to try to reduce wasted journeys, a new procedure will be introduced.
OVERVIEW. The new system will revolve around the use of a panel of League Umpires who will be allocated a number of grounds within reasonable reach of their home address and who will be available to carry out inspections on a Saturday morning (or Sunday morning for Cup matches).
It is critical that the system is not abused. Before making a call and requesting an inspection, the home Captain must be reasonably satisfied that the ground conditions are such that it is unlikely that a game will take place on that day.
PROCEDURE. If, in the days leading up to the day of the match, the weather has been such that the scheduled game could be under threat,and if, on the day the weather conditions are still unfavourable, the home Captain or nominated deputy must inspect their ground as early as reasonably possible on the morning of the game.
If the home Captain believes that the scheduled game is seriously at risk, he should refer to the list on page 7 and contact the nominated Umpire NO LATER than 10:00 am. Once an agreed time for the inspection has been agreed, he must then contact the visiting Captain to offer him or his representative, the opportunity to attend.
The inspecting Umpire will make his inspection unaccompanied by either Captain and will then decide whether (a) the game should be called off immediately or (b) whether, in his opinion, there is a reasonable prospect of the game starting by the latest time allowed for in Section 3 Rules i.e 150 minutes after the scheduled start time. The visiting Umpire is, and will remain, the SOLE arbiter of fitness of ground etc.
6 In the case of (a) above, the Home Captain or nominated deputy must take the following steps. If the visiting Captain is not present, telephone him to advise that the game has been called off. He must then contact the nominated Umpire(s) scheduled to attend and advise them accordingly. He must then pay the visiting Umpire £5 as would be usual for a game which cannot be played. In the case of (b) above, the nominated Umpire(s) will attend as normal. The home Captain will advise the Umpire(s) that an early inspection has been made and thereafter, the game will be under the control of the nominated Umpire(s) In the event of a panel Umpire being unavailable or away, the home Captain should attempt to contact either the nominated Umpire(s) for the game or another League umpire who lives in the vicinity.

1) Spirit of Cricket Cricket is a game that owes much of its unique appeal to the fact that it should be played not only within its laws, but also within the Spirit of the Game. Any action which is seen to abuse this spirit causes injury to the game itself. The major responsibility for ensuring the spirit of fair play rests with the captains.
2) ECB Code of Conduct ECB CODE OF CONDUCT 1.1 Code of Conduct 1.1.1 The ECB is committed to maintaining the highest standards of behaviour and conduct. This Code of Conduct incorporates the Spirit of Cricket, as set out below. It applies to all matches played under the auspices of the ECB and may be applied to cricket in general.
1.1.2 The captains are responsible at all times for ensuring that play is conducted within the Spirit of Cricket as well as within the Laws.
1.1.3 Players and team officials must at all times accept the umpire’s decision. Players must not show dissent at the umpire’s decision or react in a provocative or disapproving manner towards another player or a spectator.
1.1.4 Players and team officials shall not intimidate, assault or attempt to intimidate or assault an umpire, another player or a spectator.
1.1.5 Players and team officials shall not use crude and/or abusive language (known as “sledging”) nor make offensive gestures or hand signals nor deliberately distract an opponent.

Each Club in the League undertakes not to publish through the media derogatory, misleading/mischevious or offensive comments about the League, it’s Officers and Committees, Umpires, Scorers, other Clubs and their players/members. To do so could be viewed as bringing the League into disrepute. For the avoidance of doubt, “media” shall include, but is not exclusive to , Club websites, newspapers and other publications, and the use of social networking sites such as Twitter, Facebook, Google Plus etc.
If any person in any Club within this League breaches this policy, the Club concerned may be liable to a fine and the author of such comments may be liable to individual disciplinary action.

The Panel will comprise of four elected members of the League Management Committee and three other senior members of the League. All complaints/reports from whatever source must be submitted in writing (which shall include electronic mail) to the Secretary of the Panel or his deputy.

The written submission must reach the Secretary of the Panel (or deputy) within 10 days of the alleged incident/grievance or breach of standards. The Disciplinary Panel will initially consider all reports received to establish if an offence may have been committed. Where an offence may have been committed then the following shall apply. The Panel will supply copies of all documentation to the appropriate County Welfare Officer where Child Welfare Issues are associated with any complaint/report and will adopt any appropriate action recommended. If the report relates to a Club rather than a player/players, then this will be dealt with solely by the Disciplinary Panel. If however, the report relates to a player/players then, in the first instance, the report will be forwarded to the Club or Clubs concerned. The Club(s) will then be required to conduct a full internal investigation into the report. However, if the allegations are deemed to be of a serious nature, then the Disciplinary Panel reserve the right to deal with the matter without initial recourse to the Club/Clubs concerned). Any reference to player/players as above shall also include any other individual or group of individuals.
60 Thereafter and within 10 days, the Club(s) will report back to the Disciplinary Panel with full details of their findings and full details of any sanction or penalty that the Club/Clubs have imposed. If the Disciplinary Panel, having received the reports from the Club(s) concerned, then consider that a Disciplinary Hearing is required, the parties will receive notification in writing or by electronic mail of the date, time and venue of that Hearing. This notification will also show details of the alleged offence(s) The Disciplinary Hearing will be heard by no fewer than three of the seven members of the Disciplinary Panel and the Secretary of the Panel will act as Secretary at the Hearing. If the Secretary of the Panel is unavailable, then another member of the Panel will deputise. This shall also apply in the event of an Appeal Hearing. Welfare matters are paramount and as noted the appropriate County Welfare Officer will always be consulted where Child Welfare Issues are involved. Any junior charged with an offence or asked to appear as a witness must be accompanied by a responsible adult who would normally be parent, relative or Club Welfare Officer. This adult should not otherwise be involved directly in the events which are the subject for the Hearing. Any player or Club suspected of an offence has the right to be represented at any Hearing .It shall be the Club(s) responsibility to ensure that their player(s) are afforded this opportunity. Judgement will only be made against an individual or Club based on the evidence submitted in writing or submitted at a Hearing. Should there be an Appeal in respect of the decision of the Disciplinary Panel, such appeal must be submitted in writing ( including electronic mail) to the Secretary of the Panel (or deputy) within 7 days of the Disciplinary Hearing. A non returnable deposit of £25 must accompany the written appeal. Such communication must detail the grounds for the Appeal. The Appeal will be heard by the League Management Committee. The four Management Members of the Disciplinary Panel will not sit on the Appeal irrespective of whether they were members of the original Hearing. The Secretary of the Panel (or deputy) will act as Secretary at the Appeal Hearing. For the avoidance of doubt and in line with ECB recommendations, any decisions reached by the Disciplinary Panel will be on the basis of the balance of probabilities and not as before, beyond reasonable doubt Leagues must inform member clubs, who in turn must advise their players, that any player suspended for part or all of the forthcoming season may have their information shared with other leagues.

What has Safeguarding got to do with us? We just want to play cricket!
This is something I hear from time to time, and it does disappoint me.
Given what has been happening in football recently, with players coming forward to say that they were abused as children, I am certain everyone in sport understands the need to make sure children are safe in their sport.
This means making sure we follow the guidance the ECB gives us, and especially it means making sure we carry out the basic checks on people who will have a responsibility towards children in cricket.
The ECB website provides the following information:
“The England and Wales Cricket Board is firmly committed to creating a safe and enjoyable environment for children to enjoy the game.
Key to this is the recruitment and vetting of the many invaluable individuals who create many rewarding experiences in cricket.
All organisations working with children have safeguarding responsibilities and clear requirements placed upon them by legislation and guidance This apples whether you are a club, league panel or another organisation. It is there to ensure safe recruitment practices for individuals who work with children, including policies on when to obtain a criminal records check.
The ECB guidance on the roles in cricket that require a vetting check are available on the ECB website: https://www.ecb.co.uk/safeguarding/dbs- checks-ecb-vetting
The roles in cricket that require ECB vetting are: • Welfare Officer (Club, League, County) • Volunteer Co-ordinator • Coach (volunteer or paid, assistant or lead) • Umpire • Scorer • Colt/Junior Manager • Age Group Manager • Open-Age Team Captain • Junior Supervisor • First Aider/Physiotherapist/Medical Support 103 To obtain a DBS application form or if you have any queries regarding your application, please contact GB Group on 0845 251 3000”
Or you can contact me.
There really is no excuse for us not to do what we need to do.
We know there are people who have unhealthy reasons for wanting to be around children. We know there are a number of people in Cheshire who have been banned or suspended from working with children. Some of these have served prison sentences for offences against children. One individual is currently serving 15 years.
Our children and young people need us to make sure our game is as safe as it can be. Parents are now advised by Government to ask if people at Sports Clubs are vetted, and we should be able to say – hand on heart – that everyone is vetted who needs to be.
It’s easy to do – let’s do it.
Let’s make 2017 the year where all vetting checks are completed before the start of the season, and really show that we value the safety of the children and young people who take part in cricket in our County.

NEED FOR SPONSORSHIP AND INDIVIDUAL DONATIONS We thank Kookaburra-Reader & High Peak Cricket Society for their continuing sponsorship of the Junior Section. To continue with the development of our juniors at all levels we would welcome further help, as we no longer get aid from the Counties. We hope to introduce winter coaching for our Junior League Squads. It would be nice to have sweaters or other apparel for our League teams to improve the image of our League, and to make the players proud to represent the League. Most inter-League games cost a minimum of £100 to put on at home, similarly cup finals.
SO GO ON SPONSOR A COMPETITION, A FINAL, ONE OR MORE OF OUR REPRESNTATIVE TEAMS, COACHING OR ANY OTHER AREA YOU MAY CONSIDER.
We have seen many changes in the DCCL, most of them we believe for the better. Our League is stronger than ever before and we now compete at all levels, not just make up the numbers. Let us continue to build and improve, Give us YOUR SUPPORT.

120 121 ECB Guidelines for Junior Players in Open Age Group Cricket The ECB has issued guidance covering the selection and participation of young players in open age group cricket. It is designed to help clubs to decide when to select young players in open age group cricket and how best to help their cricketing development when they play within open age groups. The ECB keeps these guidelines under review and, following feedback from clubs and leagues, has revised these guidelines for the 2011 season. The ECB will continue to monitor the impact of these guidelines and you are invited to feedback your thoughts and comments in writing to the ECB Non-First Class Cricket Department. 1. Making the step up from junior to open age group cricket is a significant event in any player’s cricket experience. Ensure that the player’s safety, personal development needs and overall cricket experience are considered. 2. There is no definitive age at which they should be introduced to open age group cricket but determine each case on an individual basis dependent on their ability and stage of cognitive and emotional maturity to take part at this level, however, clubs, squad coaches and managers must take into account the requirements on age at point 9 of this guidance 3. ECB Fast Bowling Directives and Fielding Regulations should always be adhered to for junior players in open age group cricket. 4. Provide an opportunity for players to show their talents in an appropriate way. Children who are just used as fielders will not fully experience the game. 5. Be supportive at all times for all forms of effort even when children are not successful. Try and put them in situations where they will experience some success (however small) and ensure plenty of praise and encouragement. 6. Try and involve them in all aspects of the game wherever possible i.e. socializing, team talks, practice, decision making etc. so that they feel part of the team. 7. Children will often feel more comfortable and able to perform if they have a family member or friend also playing in the side.
122 8. Remember, children’s early experiences will remain with them always and will often determine whether they want to remain playing the game or give up and do something else! 9. Players who are selected in a County U12 squad in Spring for a summer squad or in another squad deemed by ECB Performance Managers to be of a standard above ‘District level’ for that season are eligible to play Open Age Cricket. This is providing they are at least 11 years old, and in School Year 7 on 1st September in the year preceding the season and have written parental consent to play. In allowing these players to play in Open Age Cricket it is essential that Clubs and Coaches recognise the ‘Duty of Care’ obligations towards these young players. This means that County Squad and Area Squad players, both boys and girls are able to play Open Age Group Cricket if they are in U12 Age group and are a minimum of 11 years old on 01 September of the year preceding the season. District and club players who are not in a County or Area squads must wait until they reach the Under 13 age group, 12 years old, Year 8 on 01 September of the preceding year prior to being able to play in any Open Age Cricket, again written parental consent is required for these players.
The Duty of Care should be interpreted in two ways: • Not to place a young player in a position that involves an unreasonable risk to that young player, taking account of the circumstances of the match and the relative skills of the player • Not to create a situation that places members of the opposing side in a position whereby they cannot play cricket as they would normally do against adult players.
123 In addition the guidelines note the need for clubs and leagues to recognize the positive experience that young players should have in open age cricket and thus clubs should provide an opportunity for players to show their talents in an appropriate way. Children who are just used as fielders will not fully experience the game.By reproducing the Guidelines in the League Handbook, the effect is that this now becomes a League rule. In addition to the details reproduced above, the League has decided to impose additional conditions as per paras 1-4 below: Junior Players who meet these requirements will be allowed to play in 2nd XI cricket ONLY. Such players must be endorsed by a letter not only from parents but from the County Coach/District Coach. Clubs wishing to make an Under 12 player available for selection for 2nd XI cricket must apply to the League Management Committee in writing and provide the letters of consent in (2) as evidence to the application. If the application is approved, the League Management Committee will supply the Club with written confirmation which can be presented to the Umpire(s). The Duty of Care obligations are paramount.
