AGM NEWS
The Bedale Cricket Club AGM was held on Sunday 16th March at 7:30pm
at BASA. The meeting saw one of the largest attendences at an AGM for a number of years and both the previous and forthcoming
seasons were discussed in depth.
Both the chairman and secretary reported a disappointing year for the first team who had, after a
number of years of struggle, been relegated from division one of the NYSD. It was noted that the majority of the first team
was still very young and that it was hoped that an improvement in consistency would see us push for an immediate return to
division one. The meeting heard that the juniors had again had a sucessful season with the under 15's winning the league and
under 13's reaching the final of the cup. The under 12's had also had a good season and continued to improve.
Financially the club remained in a strong position despite a number of one off costs last year including
a new scurrifier and work on the BASA equipment store. The hard work over the previous year in ressurecting the 100 club and
a very sucessful car boot sale on Easter Saturday had boosted club funds and it is hoped that these two events would
run again this year. Perhaps the main news financially was that Phil Staves, treasurer since 1989, has decided to stand down.
The chairman wished to record the clubs thanks for all of Phil's hard work over the years.
