Once again, Upminster Cricket Club will be taking part in the Natwest ECB CricketForce, which this year takes place on Saturday and Sunday, the 27th and 28th of March, and your help and support is needed!!!

CricketForce encourages cricket supporters, club members, friends and families to give something back to their local cricket club by volunteering to take part in works to improve the ground, practice facilities and clubhouse.

In past years Upminster Cricket Club have carried out major works on and around the ground during CricketForce.  These include a new patio outside the clubhouse, interior and exterior painting of the clubhouse, start of work on the net facilities next to the clubhouse, improvements to net facilities next to the tennis courts, work on sightscreens and improvements to the changing rooms.  This led to the Club being the "National Launch Club" for Natwest CricketForce in 2006, with England stars Alistair Cook and Monty Panesar visiting the Club to help with the work.

Once again in 2010, there are several tasks which need to be completed during this weekend, so everything is ready for the start of the 2010 season. So if you can spare an hour or two (or a bit longer), then please come to the clubhouse at any time from 10am on either the Saturday or the Sunday. If you have any equipment which you feel may be of use (tools, ladders, shovels etc) then please bring these with you, as they may well be of use.

Please keep your eyes on the website in the next few weeks for further details of this weekend.
