Interested clubs have met under the guidance of Robert Oakley (Upperthong CC), intending to set up a Holme Valley social cricket association for summer 2014. Clubs include Upperthong, Honley, Thongsbridge, Holmebridge, Thurstonland, The Sleepers (Linthwaite) and maybe The Rock.
Discussions are at an early stage, seeking advice from the Yorkshire Cricket Board being a first step.
New recruits/new arrangements
The casuals are hoping to recruit two new players – Alan Brierley and Tony Booth.
More discussions are taking place between older Casuals and Thongsbridge CC. We hope to become full members of Thongsbridge and play under the name Thongsbridge Casuals. Greg Smith and Dave Walker are expecting take the role of contact/coordinator for the new section.
Almondbury Casuals can then think about winding up.
