Nets

Boys and visitors. The long bitter winter is coming to an end. Artic conditions have been replaced by a classic British summer of squalls and the like. So it must be time for indoor nets. And it is. After last year's booking debacle this year the club will be netting on a Sunday night at its spiritual home Tiffin Boys School gym. This year we have secured the services of Alex Tudor to coach some of the bowlers.

This is good. This represents progress. Some people may even learn something.

Frankly given that Mr T made a composed 97* against the Kiwis (anyone, anyone - can't be bothered to look up the facts) before being pointlessly stranded by a selfish Graham Thorpe he could probably teach some of us a thing or two about batting too.

First net = Sunday February 1st. More info in the weeks to come about exact timings and where the injured, lame, elderly and infirm can meet for a beer afterwards...

[Here's a picture taken on Saturday of the Wick outdoor nets. They look slightly drier than the deck the 2s played Haslemere on two seasons ago]
