New Players???

Whilst I am delighted with the commitment shown by the hardcore we now have that always turn out when they can......I refuse to believe that in an organisation of our size there can't be a few more. As such, just a polite appeal to you all to generate a bit of interest in the club where you can. I am more than happy doing all the admin and to contribute 4 runs (granted, when I'm in form) and 2 dropped catches on matchdays, but being seconded away means the area I probably need help most is in the recruitment of new players. It's great to see the old faces back at net's....but c'mon guys, let's rustle up a few more!

MPCC Pre-Season Social Thursday 28th April 2011

I am looking to organise a pre-season social for MPCC players in an attempt to get everybody suitably bonded in time for our first match on May 15th!

I am very loosely considering a Mansfield town centre meet followed by a curry, probably at the Chand just off Toothill lane as they have a private function room we make use of.

There will be some awards for last seasons winners!!

The following day is a Bank Holiday for the Royal Wedding, so hopefully some of you will be able to make a night of it as there will be no work the following day?

Obviously I could do with an idea of numbers to begin with in order to set something up at the restaurant. As such.....please let me know ASAP if you intend to come. Obviously, if there aren't enough, last years winners will just have to get their memento's when I next see them (yep, you got it....deliberate attempt at a guilt trip)!
