Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
Successfully playing sport, albeit with restrictions, during the pandemic year of 2020. Some bowls and cricket clubs in the area decided to close down during this period. To satisfy membership demand the CIO continued to play cricket and bowls once their governing bodies said it was safe to do so in July. Playing did mean the CIO had to ensure that certain safeguards were in place. In cricket for example players had to come ready changed as changing rooms were closed and bring their own teas and eat outside as no one was allowed to eat or prepare food in the tea room. Similarly with the bowls no food to be eaten in the bowls pavilion and restrictions of how many members were allowed on the bowls green at any one time.
Continuing to develop the junior cricket section. After restarting junior cricket in 2017 the CIO has continued to increase the number of juniors and 2020 was the most successful year to date from this point of view despite the pandemic. A significant number of juniors come from the nearby inner city district of Derby.

Their usual indoor facilities were closed to them at this time and the CIO was approached to see if they could play on our facility from September to December. Juniors in the u8, u11, u13 age groups participated. Strict safety precautions, as specified by the football governing body, were in place during these sessions.
