The impact of COVID
This has been a strange and really really tough year for the club, all our volunteers, players and especially our juniors. Our juniors have missed out terribly not being able to play with their friends or make new friends through the training sessions and games they play. Not only this the fantastic social evenings at the club have been non-existent and, as a consequence, our plans to progress development of the club have been severely affected.
2021 project to lift spirits
One project we had earmarked for last season was to raise funds towards a new electronic scoreboard. Our current scoreboard is not fit for purpose, is falling to bits and is only used for adult cricket. The numbers fall off and it's pretty difficult to see from the pitch. It looks a sorry sight as you can see below!
A new electronic scoreboard would not only be a huge improvement on what we have today but would also be used for all our junior games and we know our juniors would receive such a boost to be able to see their individual and team scores up in lights. How amazing would this scoreboard look at LCC!
We will position the new scoreboard at the top of the ground facing the clubhouse. This will give everyone the chance to freely see the score and will add another great feature to our wonderful ground.
Support Video
Three of our local junior players, all brothers, with their Dad, a Level 2 coach at the club, decided to make a video of what it means to them and the club to have a new electronic scoreboard. Take a look at the video to get some great insights into the impact it would have.
