To Members and Supporters of Reed Cricket Club,

A reminder for you to please renew your Club Membership as soon as possible if you have not paid your Subscriptions already.

Adult Players: If you have not already paid, there is just one week left until the 1st May before you will be required to pay the full rate of £90. If you are quick, it will be only £75 until then so don’t delay any longer!

Junior Players (those aged 14 and above on 1st Sept 2018 AND in full-time education): It is £25 if you pay this week but it will be £35 after 1st May.

Please read Cilla’s letter below then complete and send her your Membership Forms so that you remain on her database. There is an electronic version of the Form on this website under “Members Area”.

Feel free to pass-on this email to any potential new Players and / or Non-Playing Members and also convey information to those we know do not have internet access or email addresses. We rely on you to help this Club run efficiently and part of that comes under communication. If it was me, I would rather be told something twice than not at all. Thank you.

The senior teams started their season on Saturday in beautiful late-spring weather — long may it continue. Within a fortnight there will also be Colts and All-Stars training and matches and the Saturday Herts League gets underway on 11th May.

The full programme consists of more than 120 Fixtures during this coming season. We would love to see you all when you come to support Reed. The website contains details / venues of the matches but if, like me, you collect traditional Fixture Cards, our 2019 version has been printed and you can pick-up one from the Howard Marshall Pavilion when you visit us.

Wishing you an enjoyable season in whatever capacity you fall into, Player, Non-Playing Member, Vice-President, Spectator, Long-distance Supporter, Former Player, etc.

Thank you for renewing your Membership or joining for the first time.

PGB

Honorary Secretary, Reed Cricket Club.
