Covid Updates
Thursday 1st April 2021
After our recent survey the overwhelming response from Club members was they’d like to restart playing as soon as possible. To that end we’re going to restart Cubs, Juniors and Badgers training from Sunday 4th April and Seniors training sessions from Tuesday 6th April. Spond invites to follow, please complete them in the usual way.
Our Club Committee will meet on April 19th where we’re going to plan what we can do for the rest of the Summer and to try and sort out proposals for our finances – specifically how to address who paid what in the disrupted 20/21 Covid season and how we take this forward into membership costs for 21/22. You’ll appreciate this might get a bit tricky. As an added complication TDMS have increased pitch hire costs by 15%.
