## **Activities and Achievements**
In 2023-24 the club continued to thrive and expand.
- The club for a second season in a row fielded five senior weekend teams which game an opportunity for juniors to start to transition to senior cricket. In addition there was a midweek senior social team.
- In terms of juniors the club fielded an under 16 team, two under 14 teams, two under 12 teams and for the first time a girls under 14 hardball team as well as playing some Women and Girls games. And there will be a womans team competing in womens premier league (WPL) for the first time in 202.
- The club also played in a number of softball festivals which gave the younger junior members the chance to take part in games for the first time.
- We are lucky to have an excellent group of supportive parents and other volunteers who help the club in many different ways.
The club continues to have ambitions to improve its facilities but continues to have challenges with that as it is based in a public park.
