Nominations for #thecricketcollective Grassroots C

Nominations for #thecricketcollective Grassroots Cricket Awards in Cambridgeshire closed last night and we want to say a massive "Thank you!"

We have received 64 nominations against 14 categories from clubs across the County.

Over the next week, the tough job of judging takes place and the Category Winners will receive an invitation to join us at the brilliant Presentation Day at the Cloud County Ground in Chelmsford on 11th September, where, in the Hospitality Marquee we partner and join our friends from Essex County Cricket Club to share the Presentation Day and get the opportunity to watch some first class cricket as Essex take on Notts in the County Championship.

All nominees will be written to and we will highlight their successful nomination across Social Media and our Website - www.cambscricket.org.uk

Our picture shows a cross-section of our Category Winners from last years Presentation event.

Thank you again for the nominations, it really does signify that we have a large number of special people carrying out marvellous work across Cricket Clubs in Cambridgeshire which benefit not only their club members, but the wider cricket community as well.

We continue to seek nominations for the "Cricket C

We continue to seek nominations for the "Cricket Collective" Grassroots Awards and the deadline of Sunday 18th August is looming large.
We have received 49 nominations so far, but we need more, we have over 80 clubs and I still bet there are 2 people in each club who are absolute Superstars who we need to know about.
Lets have a look at at a Couple of the Winners from last Year.
Meet Oran, Oran was 16 when he won the Rising Star Award Category, during the season he was taking his GCSE's, but still found time to assist with coaching in his club, complete the Young Leaders in Cricket programme which gave him new skills and found time to fundraise for the MCC Foundation Hub in Cambridge. Since winning the award Oran has continued his good work.
Meet Phil Kingsmill, Phil leads the team that won the Volunteer Grounds Team Award. Lets be clear the award was not for the best ground, but the team who moved mountains to ensure those who played at the ground had a better all-round experience in 2023 than they did in 2022, by making lots of improvements (some large and some small). Phil attended all of the Cambs Grounds Keepers meetings, always looking to listen and learn his craft. Following the award the teams aim for 2024 was to give teams playing a better experience than in 2023 and feedback received tells us they are achieving just that!
A reminder the deadline for entries is Sunday 18th Aug, we also attach details of the Categories and the criteria against each category and the QR code, which will take you to the nomination form and all winners will be invited to join us at the Presentation Day on 11th September at Chelmsford where we celebrate with our partners from Essex County Cricket Club while watching Essex in the County Championship.

Following on from our recent drive to develop umpiring skills across the County a good news story.
Meet Louise Vickers.

Louise is Secretary at Histon Cricket Club and is a cricket mum, with husband Dan a coach also at Histon and children who all play.

In April Louise attended the ECB Introduction to Umpiring Course held at Sawston & Babraham CC's Spicers Pavilion.

After that Louise was unsure where she should start her umpiring. So with small steps Louise started umpiring junior games at Histon and then Louise was introduced to experienced umpire Lizzy Conder, is is also a Board Member of Cambridgeshire Cricket.

Last Sunday, Louise stood in a Cambridgeshire Under 13 Girls game with Lizzy and did a great job.

Asked about her experience Louise remarked "It was incredible to be able to learn whilst the game was happening, to get feedback that I could put into action straight away, and then further feedback at the end to take away and develop my own strategies for. Lizzy was so helpful with her calm and measured, yet firm and decisive approach. I will treasure that experience and take it out in the field with me every time I umpire."

We think you did a great job Louise, thank you and we look forwards to seeing where umpiring takes you next!

Although we have had no Boys u10 squad this season

Although we have had no Boys u10 squad this season, in does not mean we have not invested in the age group running skills development sessions during Winter and spring, culminating in the group getting together for 2 x Group based Hundred Format games.

Both games were competitive, with some developing talent on show.

Who in your club has impressed you in the last few

Who in your club has impressed you in the last few weeks, who has been leading the way delivering brilliant coaching to your clubs young people, who has been making your ground look amazing and tending to the hanging baskets outside the pavilion and keeping the outskirts of the ground neat and tidy.

We need to know about them!

Who has been telling your local community about your brilliant club and encouraging Women and Girls to play, who has been going into schools to attract young members into your club by delivering Chance to Shine or Dynamos sessions.

We need to know about them!

Who has been there for as long as you can remember, just there at your club, always doing the right thing at just the right time like they did last year and the year before or, in fact, for as long as you can remember.

We need to know about them.

Why because it is the time of the year for you to nominate these Very Important People in the ECB "Cricket Collective" Grassroots Awards.

Volunteers in your clubs are the lifeblood of our sport and it is so important that we recognise them and where we can, give them a little treat.

In the pictures below we list the categories and the criteria by which you should nominate, along with a QR code which you can scan and head straight to the nomination form.

It's quick, it's simple and it shows you appreciate those members who really do make the earth move so we can all enjoy the game we love.

We already have 30+ nominations but we have room for a whole lot more.

The deadline is Sunday 18th August and each category winner will be invited as a VIP to our Presentation Day on 11th September where we partner with our colleagues at Essex County Cricket Club in watching 1st Class cricket in Chelmsford while having some great food and a little drink.
It really is a brilliant opportunity to relax and say "Thank You!"

So please do get your nominations in!

This is your very, very, very last call for you to

This is your very, very, very last call for you to be able to sign up to the Umpiring Skills Development Workshop taking place tomorrow night (1st Aug) taking place at The Paradise Sports Centre, where City of Ely CC have their home.

Although the session is FREE it does not mean by any means the quality of the tutors delivering the sessions is anything but high.

Peter Hinstridge is Chair of Cambs and Hunts Association of Cricket Officials and is a widely experienced umpire and tutor and Ben Whyall is an ECB Umpiring tutor, with wide umpiring experience in the Read Brothers East Anglian Premier League and currently is involved in the latter stages of the ECB Club Cup Competitions.

Both Ben and Peter love to share their knowledge and wisdom and the workshop will help anyone attending increase their knowledge of the role of the umpire, the laws of the game and how to apply them and increase your game management communication skills.

At the last course each of the participants had at least one "Eureka!" moment.

This workshop is ideal for those who umpire a few overs in either the Men's or Women's game, umpire in junior games or have left the game and want to start giving back.

It's not too late, you can book one of the final places by using this link - https://booking.ecb.co.uk/NE8R0B
