## Section D                      Achievements and erformance p 

The club fielded teams in four leagues including two Saturday teams, one **Summary of the main** Sunday and one Mid-Week side, plus a ladies section **achievements of the charity during the year** Our first XI again maintained their position in Division Two of the NTCL despite the restrictions of a relatively small playing squad. This benefits other members of the club with several younger members gaining experience of playing at a higher level. Our 2[nd] XI had a comfortable season in Division six again narrowly missing out on promotion. Several junior members participated regularly in the 2[nd] XI with others playing on a less frequent basis. This was in line with our intention to provide opportunity for younger members to progress within the club. This was also apparent in our Midweek and Sunday sides which regularly consisted of a majority of under 18s alongside more experienced cricketers to aid their development. Our Ladies section participated in several festivals and an indoor league, in addition to regular weekly training nights, The club again ran the ECB’s All Stars Programme for 5-8 year olds with 39 participants this year. We also ran the ECB’s Dynamos programme for 8-11 year olds with 47 participants. Progression from All Stars to Dynamos from previous participants was strongly evident. This natural progression within the club is also evident in our planning for the 2025 season. Due to the high number of Dynamos cricketers progressing to Under 11 cricket we will be fielding two teams at Under 11 level this year. Our under 11s, 13s and 15s continue to progress and develop their skills in hard ball cricket with indoor training continuing through the winter months in preparation for the season ahead. The club’s membership continues to grow with 193 associated members. The club continue to focus on improving facilities for members which this season has included renovations to the social area in the clubhouse. We are also in discussions with the ECB and NCB relating to improving the playing surface at the ground. Our main focus for 2025 is to raise sufficient funds to be able to install an off field artificial practice area.
