Reminder - Annual General Meeting this Saturday
|
|
A reminder that the Streatham & Marlborough AGM will take place this Saturday at the clubhouse from 6pm. Please make every effort to attend - this is your club and you can directly influence the direction that it takes. I would stress that it’s important to hear from all members whether you have been with us for one season or fifty. Every view counts. After a (hopefully) quick meeting, there will be a club night with lasagne and salad available from our wonderful tea ladies. All welcome to attend, even if you can’t make the AGM.
The evening will consist of reports from the officers, elections of officials for 2020 and agreement of fees (which are proposed to remain the same). As far as I am aware, the current incumbents are willing to stand for election with the exception of:
- Chairman – John Greenwood stepping down. We have interest from Karen Klomp
- Membership – Dan Johnson stepping down. We have interest from Sam Keenan
- Women’s Club Captain – Emma Williams stepping down. We have interest from Tanya Wanless
- Women’s 1st XI Captain – Kathryn Tharby stepping down. We have interest from Tanya Wanless
- Men’s 2nd XI Captain – Armani Sharif stepping down. We have interest from Chris Hobbis
- Men’s 3rd XI Captain – Andy Mills stepping down. We have interest from Anthony Corner
- New Men’s Surrey XI Captain – Position created for new league team. We have interest from Dan Forman and William Porteous, potentially as a job share
- Men’s Midweek / Slam Captain – David Cook stepping down. We have interest from Shaf Malik
- Women’s Slam Captain – Tanya Wanless stepping down. We have interest from Izzy Marin-Curtoud
- Men’s Surrey Championship Representative – Justin Sbresni stepping down
- Junior Club Captain – Potential reinstatement of position. We have interest from Oliver Nicholls.
Note: An applicant has to be proposed and seconded by other members to become an eligible candidate.
If you are wish to make a proposal, appoint a proxy, express interest in a position or are unable to make the AGM, please do so by contacting us via the club e-mail (enquiries.smcricketclub@gmail.com).

Proposed Tour to Sri Lanka
|
|
We have received some interest in this so far. Please contact Jason direct on j.a.s.james505@gmail.com for more information.
As a reminder of the basic details... Planning has begun for a club tour to Sri Lanka next year (14 – 26 March). This coincides with the ECB tour so there is provision for two days at the Test Match along with four days of cricket as well as rest days to sightsee and go on safari. We are looking for expressions of interest at this stage. Jason James is leading the organisation and has worked some minor miracles to get this off the ground for a cost of approximately GBP 1,350 to include flights, accommodation (half board), test tickets, games and transportation.
