Green Maintenance

Julie and Paul have decided to stand down from the green maintenance team from next year due to health problems. They have done a tremendous amount of work on the greens, over many years, most of which goes unnoticed, and the club need to recognise this.

The greens are the most important part of the club, without them we have no club. It is also in our lease agreement that we have to maintain both greens. 

The club urgently need  some volunteers to join the TEAM.

Work includes, mowing, leaf collecting, weeding, scarifying, fertilising, barrowing grass, verticutting. looking after equipment.  Maintaining/ painting benches.

Tuition will be given, you don't need to be a mowing expert to be part of the team.

All help will be appreciated

Please put your name down on the mowing list, in the Park green notice board if you are willing to help.

MARY BOARDMAN

At our AGM last night Mary Boardman our secretary stood down, as she will be moving from the area. We thank Mary for all her sterling work, she took over at a very difficult time for the club, and steered it back into some form of stability, through hard work and perseverance. It was a sharp learning curve for her.

Mary was presented with a bouquet of flowers by club chairman Julie Tooth.

Paul Burton was appointed as acting secretary on a years secondment, according to our club rules.  Please give Paul your full support.

New Players

Chaddesden Park are looking to recruit new players, any standard from beginners, novices, or players from other clubs seeking a change.

CLUB POLICY

   At the last committee meeting it was agreed that players indicate ,which of all the leagues the club has entered , they wish to play in.

                                             The captains of each team then selects players for their respective teams. Players DO NOT decide which team they are playing for, that is the                                                  captains decision, with the higher team having preference of selection to all players.

                                              Members are asked to respect this, and players may be selected to play for a a higher team, or between teams, according to form and                                                                availability (consideration given to circumstances)

                                              This is a club policy , and will be used for 2025

season, and is the only way the club will survive and improve. 

 

                                                                                           

                                           

                                             

There appears to be some confusion regard squads on the board.

Being named in a squad does not necessarily mean you only play for that team

Teams are selected on ability, and availability, and players must be prepared to play for any team they are selected for, and are not tied to a particular team or league.(subject to league rules)  Preference  of selection is always given to the higher team, who can call upon the best players from the next team when short.

It appears the club may have to withdraw a team from the Belper Saturday League. This means that players who may have been playing in that team, will have to be incorporated into the C &B teams, and the respective captains, need to include these players, there is no such thing as a set squad.

 

New Club Shirts

Club shirts have now been re ordered, original orders sold out. Please let our club chairman Julie Tooth know if you wish to buy one The club policy is for teams to wear the shirts in league matches, it looks like we are a team, and we encourage all players to do this.

£12 shirts, £18 fleeces

.The new club LOGO pictured right will be on the shirts.  You can pay by cash, cheque or bank transfer.
