The Great Linford Youth Cricket Club was formed in early 2007. A meeting was held, in the Pavillion on Great Linford High Street, for all those in the Great Linford parish who were interested in forming a youth cricket team. The Committee was elected in February 2007 and indoor training sessions were organised at Radcliffe School, with members of the Stony Stratford Cricket Club providing the coaching.The Club received funding from the Parish Council and elsewhere and were able to purchase some basic equipment, bats, ball, helmets etc. Coaching moved outdoors, now run by Shaun Greig and by Spring the team were all set to play. The intention had been to arrange friendly games against local teams
but Buckingham pulled out of the Hair Moda Under 16 Youth League and
Great Linford agreed to fulfill their fixtures, albeit as friendly matches.
It was going to be a tough test as the teams in that league were all
at under-16 level, older and much more experienced than the Great Linford
players. |
