As I am sure you all know, preparation for the 2019 cricket season has already begun and we are hard at work as ever to make the club as successful as ever.

In order to do so it is vitally important that our junior section continues to flourish and provide the great sessions we have done over the past year and long before that.

This is where you can help us!

At this moment we are looking for an U9A team coach and U11B team coach. The role of a coach is to be a part of the Friday night coaching team and also to manage the side for Sunday mornings in the league fixtures. You don’t have to be a qualified coach to undertake this role. As a club we are committed to supporting anyone who would like to become an ECB level 2 qualified coach, and can offer both financial and practical support in undertaking this course should you wish to do so.

If you wish to be a part of the brilliant team of coaches that help bring through the next generation of young stars at Upton please feel free to drop me an email (mattowen1@me.com) and we can see what we can do. Anyone and everyone can help!

However, any support is always welcomed. The last thing we want is to have to scale back on the amount of sides we can put out or have to reduce membership. So even if you can’t commit to running a side as listed above, we are always happy to have more people involved. Again, if this interests you, please do not hesitate to drop me an email.

Many thanks in advance,

Matt Owen
