AGM Update

Ahead of the AGM scheduled for Monday 11th December, following on from Open Forum (held 13th Nov) and agreed at our November Executive Committee meeting (held 21st Nov), the club are proposing to make the following changes: 


  • Existing Bar and Social Group to be split into two groups: Bar Operations (existing lead– Mitch Wood) and Social & Fundraising (new working group).

 

  • We would like the 1st Team Captain and Women’s Team Captain to sit on the Executive Committee, to give our players a greater representation on the committee, ensuring we continue to be cricket focused as a club. 


The club now welcome nominations to the vacant position of Social & Fundraising Lead, prior to 27th November deadline.

 

Further, existing 1st Team Captain Ryan Fitton has indicated his intentions not to play next season, which is tremendously disappointing. The club would like to place on record it’s thanks to Ryan for a strong 2023 season as captain. As such, the club are now seeking nominations for the position.


The full list of positions where nominations are being sought, is as follows: 


  • 1st Team Captain 
  • Junior Cricket Lead (Nomination received) 
  • 4th Team Captain (Nomination received) 
  • Social & Fundraising Lead 


All nominations for the positions above or any other position, need to be submitted by 8pm on Monday 27th November, by emailing mottramcricket@gmail.com.

It is not just about standing at the front and directing, but standing behind the club and ensuring it thrives for future generations . We have 7 seniors teams, including 2 women's teams and a growing, successful junior section. I think with some further developments, on and off the field, we can realise the full potential of our club and create a legacy that lasts well beyond any single season ." Stephen Scott was also confirmed as the new Junior Cricket Lead at the EGM. Stephen is the current 4th XI captain and will continue in this role alongside his new role with the junior set-up.

I have seen first hand as 4th XI captain and a parent, the good work that has gone into the junior set-up over the past few years. I am looking forward to getting stuck in and helping take it to new heights. Thank you to Chris for his hard work and leaving it in an exciting position."
