FIRST POST NEWSLETTER MAY 2010
Well here we are at the beginning of another Rounders Season and most of you will have already started playing.
CLOSED TOURNAMENT
Thanks to all who entered the Closed Tournament which was won by HB Ladies. It was most successful, and the weather was fab. A special thanks to all those who helped with all the organising and helping on the day – from making food, serving food, marking pitches donating raffle prizes, umpiring and everything else that made it a success.
REGISTRATION
You should now have received all the documentation you require. Please could you add the extra 6 balls onto the score sheet before each match starts. Will all Captains please register any new players through Jan and not Ness. Jan will then email you with the new number. You still have to pay Ness however. Spare numbers can be bought at any time but please remember that Jan needs the Player’s details prior to them being used. Also please be aware that you cannot use a number allocated to a registered player for anyone else even if that number hasn’t been used. (The League have already paid the money for that number to the NRA).
200 CLUB
Please, please try to sell your 200 Club tickets as soon as possible. The ticket stubs and money have to be given into Louise by June 3rd at the latest. Don’t miss out!!!!! The prizes are good and will be drawn once a month on the dates specified on the tickets. The Committee are working hard to raise money for the League so that we can keep costs down on future seasons – so we need your help too to achieve this. Please note that the last draw (the big one) will be drawn on Presentation Night 29th Oct and not on 30th as stated on the ticket. For any of you not aware the person who sells the most tickets will win a new aluminium rounders bat.
RULES
When playing in any cup match please note that we play 30 good balls – 2 innings and not 36 as in league matches. Also although all matches are at The Leisure Centre it is the Home Captain (First named on the fixture) who should provide posts, ball etc.

Any Other Business
Jan stated that if games haven’t started on time that all Umpires must put on the Score Sheet the reason for the game starting late. There is no penalty for not doing this but it information that the Committee require to help them improve the running of the League.
It was suggested that when arranging the Pre-season meeting that it is taken into consideration when half term is and to remember that Northamptonshire and Leics have different weeks for their holiday.
It was mentioned that last year, teams were asked not to pick Wed as their home night when in fact it didn’t seem to be a problem. Jan agreed that we didn’t seem to have any problems and that the fixtures went well but would look at it again at Committee meetings prior to the start of the season.
Wendy Hayward said that she was concerned about “The Blog” page as lots of her personal information had been given out. It was agreed by everyone that this could indeed be very risky and The Committee will talk to Jacq Farrow concerning this.
It was suggested that all Captains have access to e-mail nos from other teams. It was pointed out by Louise Wiltshire that in fact a lot of teams have their e-mail nos in the handbook. We will ask again this year that all teams provide an e-mail no that they can be contacted on. Jan pointed out that if anyone changes their e-mail no or their address they are to contact The Secretary (Min Curtis) of this so that she can let everyone know. Also as usual any complaints or questions must go to her.
It was requested that a list of Trophy winners be put into next year’s handbook. Jan said that this would be done.
It was agreed by everyone that this year’s Presentation night was very successful and attended well and that the Halloween Theme worked. Also the Disco proved to be very good. Jan said that she was disappointed that a few people pulled the decorations down as these were being left up for The Rugby Club who had a party the next night.
There was a long discussion on Tournaments. It was felt that a lot of players were disappointed that we didn’t have more and Carol B suggested that all teams pull together to attend and help out where necessary. The Committee said that they would provide the Tournaments but that we needed more commitment from teams. It was felt that not enough notification was given and it was agreed that the Committee would try to arrange Tournaments more in advance and put the dates in the handbook prior to the start of the season. Jan said that last year we were struggling to find venues and that we would try to improve things. The Committee will try to put a Tournament on in late April prior to the Season commencing and will charge £30.
There was a discussion about the lack of funds and it was suggested that maybe we look for sponsorship for the League. Everyone was made aware that Flo had managed to obtain a donation from this year’s Carnival proceeds and that we were looking at what other grants we might be eligible for.
Welford asked that we bring up a point raised by them concerning CRB checks. Jan said that we were waiting for information from the NRA regarding this.

NEWSLETTER SEPTEMBER 2009
End of Season
Well the Rounders Season has now come to a close and I hope that you’ve all enjoyed it. It wasn’t without its problems but what’s new!! All in all I think it has been an enjoyable season and bringing in the “30 Balls” has certainly made a difference – The games seem to have been much closer. Anyway whether you liked it or not you must come to the AGM which will be held on 11th November and vote. Remember all registered players get a vote and each team must send a representative (although everyone is invited). If a team fails to send a representative their team will be fined £10. Any proposals or nominations must be sent into me by 31st Oct.
Presentation
I hope that you are all in the process of ordering your tickets from Jan for the forthcoming Presentation Night which is to be held at the Rugby Club on Friday 30th October. This year as you have already been made aware is to be based on a “Halloween Theme”. Fancy dress is optional and there will be a prize for the best costume. Let’s all make an effort this year to make it a success and stay until the end!!! Tickets are £5 each. If you or your team members have any trophies which need to be handed back please take them into Jan at The Nelson – The sooner the better. Let’s try to make it easier for Jan!!!
