Changes to ECB Laws for Cricket


There are significant changes to the Laws of Cricket when the 2000 laws were revised. All players should be aware of these.

The club's policy will be to continue to play in the spirit of the game.

Opposition teams will be made aware of this before each game and the general consensus across clubs in the county is not to impose the 5 penalty run laws at our level of play.

 

Presidents Day 2004

Ferring CC hosted a match for the first time against the Royal Opera House on Sunday 25th July 2004.

Unfortunately, due to an accident on the A24, where several of the opposition players were heading from, the match started 90 minutes late, with lunch being taken before a ball had been bowled.

The Royal Opera House won the toss, and put Ferring into bat. We opened with Clive Bryant and Ben Miller who went on to make his maiden 50, being sixth man out with his score on 53. Ferring finished on Ferring ended on 205-8.

Ferring CC's Chris Paterson bowled well and extremely fast. Early in his spell he took two wickets in consecutive balls, just failing to take the hat trick. Tim Miller also took two wickets, as did Man of the match Ben Miller. The visitors ended up 174-8, with Chairman Bill Isham, taking a wicket with the final ball of the match.

So an honourable draw, which both teams enjoyed the match and the Opera House Team have expressed an interest in coming back next year and will be warmly welcomed.

This was held on Saturday 10th March 2007 at Ferring Village Hall. We were reliant upon support before and on the day by club members and the local community - so thanks to everyone for a very successful event.

We had much more publicity (the advertisement in the local paper was donated this year) and better leaflet distribution. We also had far more good quality jumble than last year and made a good profit.
