CCC to take on Palace Shield Champions
Penwortham to visit Windsor Park


The 2012 Season is looming and to get the boys in top form for the opening game against Fleetwood Captain Holdsworth, who has been re-appointed for the duration of the upcoming season, has booked in a pre-season friendly against Penwortham CC, the winners of the Palace Shield League in 2011.

Penwortham boast the notable name of Flintoff on the the books and won the league last year winning 16 of their 22 fixtures. The team should be a notable test for the Northern League team.  The game will be played on Saturday 7th April, come down and bask in what we hope will be early April sunshine and watch resigned pro Gurav Dhar and spin partner Iain Critchley in early season action.

Christmas Cheer at CCC

MANY thanks to all members, officials and players who attended an extremely successful Christmas draw, quiz and presentation evening last Friday, December 16 at the club.

It was a great evening and thanks to Peter and Marilyn Mockett for their assistance on the night and also to our player coach Iain Critchley who came down to draw the winning first prize ticket.

Congratulations to all the winners especially first prize winner Bert Higginbottom, who is a regular on Tuesday evenings at the club. Further congratulations go to Mike Mead who was the deserved winner of this year's Alan Dawber Trophy for services to Chorley CC which was presented on the night.

We made almost £700 profit on the draw itself and with bar profits from last Friday, we probably made around £1,000 in all from the draw.

Christmas Celebrations
Ladies Lunch and Christmas Raffle

The cricket may be over but Chorley Cricket Club is still a hive of activity as the Christmas festivities continue. As a thank you for the hard work of the ladies of Chorley Cricket Club throughout the season this saturday was the Ladies Lunch.

A gormet selection of fine foods prepared by the CCC's very own Cordon Bleu ladies was served by the Chorley men with a free flowing supply of wines and pink fizz to brighten up a dreary Saturday in December.  A seated meal with canape reception and an after dinner raffle was enjoyed warmly by all and hailed a great success.  To all involved a hearty THANK YOU, and we hope your continued dedication to filling both terraces and stomachs will continue throughout the 2012 season! 

In addition to this we have our Christmas Raffle, to date ticket sales are going well but can we remind members that all tickets and monies should be in by 9pm next Tuesday, December 13.

Tickets can either be posted to Tony Dawber in the envelope provided or dropped off at his address which - 36 Fieldside Avenue, Euxton. Alternatively, please leave behind the bar at the club.

The draw itself takes place in the club at 8.30pm prompt on Friday, December 16. The evening will also see the annual presentation of The Alan Dawber Trophy for services to Chorley CC, and a quiz in similar style to the regular Friday quizzes. Please come down if you can and let's make it a memorable evening and a seasonal get together for all players, supporters and officials of this great club.
