It'll soon be time to locate your whites and dust off your pads ahead of the 2017 season, and with a full League and Friendly schedule - including the ever-popular T20 Shield, and several memorial and invitational games - it looks set to be another fantastic summer of cricket at The Meadow.

There are a few more Friendly XI fixtures than usual this season, including a couple of away games for those intrepid souls who dare to travel, so despite the sad demise of our 2nd XI, we hope we can offer plenty of opportunities to play for those who wish to do so.

As always, we ask all members who are keen to play to do their best to help the Captains and Officials with selection, and the easiest way to do just that is to sign-up to our Pitchero website (and/or download the app), where you can quickly and easily update your availability for the whole season.

Feel free to download the attached 1st XI and Friendly XI fixture lists, or visit the documents section of the website, unzip and save to your phone or tablet calendar!

We look forward to seeing you on the pitch soon.

Up the O's!
