Live Streaming guidance reminder:
Clubs are reminded that if they are
intending to record or broadcast their matches or use other recording
devices during the game then they must have given their opposition
notice of their doing at a minimum of 48 hours in advance. This
notification should be sent to the opposition club's captain, league
delegate and nominated safeguarding officer. All details for which are
to be found on the club contacts page.
Please read the ECB's live streaming guidance and ensure that your club is in compliance with it.
Time regulations reminder:
Please ensure that, as captain, you and
your team have read the time game regulations prior to the start of the
final 2 time games of the season. The league committee have had to
devote a lot of time coming to terms with issues arising from matches
where a simple reading of the regulations beforehand would have resolved
all issues promptly. Please have a copy of the regulations to hand
whenever you are playing a league match too.

For captains of teams in the 4th XI
divisions your regulations do not change throughout the season. But your
captains and teams should still ensure that they have read and
understood the regulations and have a copy to hand whenever a match is
played:

Finally, well done to all clubs for
keeping up work on their squares throughout this prolonged drought. Your
clubs efforts in this regard is exemplary and in the best traditions of
recreational club cricket.
