SCRCC 20:20:20 Campaign

Aim

The SCRCC 20:20:20 Campaign is aimed at financially supporting the club in a fun way. Pick your challenge, and repeat 20 times ...

The Club

We are a volunteer run community cricket club, offering cricket, and cricket to all ages. We have a thriving junior section, with Friday night junior training being a popular community event for kids and parents. We also have a variety of events throughout the summer including a 6-a-side day, an open day and BBQ’s. Our self-maintained ground is open to the public who enjoy the facilities for dog-walking, other sports and just to enjoy the fresh air.   

Recreational cricket remains suspended due to COVID-19. Obviously at this stage we do not know if there will be a limited league season, the possibility of some friendly cricket or no cricket at all.

Unfortunately, no sport doesn’t mean no cost to sustaining your club throughout this year, whether or not there is cricket. We are proud that we maintain financials carefully, but we need to consider contingencies for a cricketless season.

  We continued to invest in facilities this winter, with significant additional expenditure on Clubhouse repairs and decoration, equipment servicing, mobile net refit and rejuvenation work on both squares. A total of around £7,000 of investment.

In addition to the this running costs through 2020, even without any cricket played, will be up to and over £5,000, with insurance alone costing £2,000. 

With a successful Crowdfunder campaign we can go a significant way to mitigating our unmet costs of the season, allowing us to maintain a viable position as we head into 2021, and look to re-establish income and investment going forward.

The Campaign

To that end like to kick-off the SCRCC 20:20:20 Crowdfunder campaign, and have a bit of fun ...
 As it’s 2020, and T20 is an ever growing part of cricket let’s do something in 20’s to make a change to lockdown lives.

1. Decide on your challenge; funny, stretching, difficult, easy, cricket related, off the wall  .... whatever you want

2. Repeat 20 times, from now to June 20th 

3. Ask your network to sponsor you, sponsor yourself, sponsor each other.

4. Or just donate to the value of your choice.

As a thank you for participation you will be able to opt for a range of rewards, details via the rewards page.

5% of member pledges will be split between Parkinson’s UK and Cancer Research UK, two charities currently close to the Clubs heart.

Send us pics or videos to [email protected] (so we know you’ve done it (!), and to share the fun) , and we will create a summary of your endeavours through our website.

Whatever you do STAY ALERT, and respect social distancing guidelines.

Thank you for your support, rico, Treasurer, SCRCC
