cricket nets

[pete]

if the ladies can mange to organise the school hall for a training session y can't the men?

[edtriplef]

Im not sure if youve asked a question there... oh yeah there they are!! the standard amount of '?' to signify a question. Thats a good point though, especially if were sending an inddot team in Cardiff. What you reckon about booking the school on the same day as the girls, but 2 hrs earlier or later than they do.

Anybody got any ideas??

[Gaz]

The times available are fridays and sunday. They are quite limited as you can see. But, Splodge, one of the girls cricketers has booked it off her own back from 7:30-8:30 on friday, and 11-12 on sunday, and as we can only book the whole hall, the guys could have two nets for an hour. What you think?

[edtriplef]

sounds good. we could see about booking hte astro straight after for a bit of fitness say on the sunday session at 12.15. just a thought. So cricket for an hour. and we could even do larger expansive cricket skills out on it then football.

Just an idea.

What do the masses think?

[Polly]

sounds good

[mrspoirot]

So what will happen if most of the girls decide to turn up during Splodge's extra hour's (as we have been invited to do) and there are loads of guys wanting to have a go as well??? This could make for some interesting cricket practice! Splodge obviously gets priority (as she booked it, etc...) but who's next on the priorty rankings??? :S See you guys on Friday!

Myself and Nick were going to use the bowling machine

The girls will get priorty, with the boys coming along to help out. There are five nets. The girls can use 3, and the boys can have two.

[mrspoirot]

Cool Although not many guys did turn up in the end, so no worries
That bowling machine made bowling a lot more easier - could we use it in matches???

[edtriplef]

Ask Webbo, he doesnt even bowl.. he just jogs up and chucks it... so yeah. cant see a problem. you will have to name it and register it on a university course.... (What a wierd image... )!

and either buy a battery or a really really long extension Cord

[splodge]

It'd need to go in a really obscure fielding position so it wouldn't have to run!

[wench]

Stick a wig on it shaped into bunches and we might just get away with it!

[mrspoirot]

Love the comments mates (they made me chuckle ) If we register it disabled as well, it may help us explain it's lack of running ability (nothing against disabled people) - hopefully we can then get away with it's lack of batting ability! Unless we find an identical looking machine, but one which can bat, and sneakedly substitute it when no ones looking I'm sure someone, somewhere has created a machine which can play cricket - if not, umm... I wonder if it would sell... (Okay, mad ramblings will now cease for the present moment, until next time... )
