Kit
for the 2010 season
Members
will by now already be aware of the deal which we have in
place for white playing kit for the coming season. The kit
has been ordered and will be with us before the start of
the season. Payment would be appreciated as soon as possible.
Please
also note that as part of the above deal and a sponsorship
agreement with Specsavers, we are also providing tracksuit
tops to go with the white kit. As with the whites, the cost
is being subsidised by the club and by Specsavers, and these
tops will cost members £9 each. A top has been reserved
for each member who has ordered whites.
For
green kit and other training & casual wear please visit
the club's online
shop in association with Key Cricket Ltd. Members
can order direct from the online shop and the items will
be posted directly to them. Orders should be placed by
15th February 2010 to ensure delivery before the start of
the season.
Finally,
please note that the club still has in stock a number of
club caps from last season. These are priced at last season's
price of £6 each, which is slightly cheaper than Key
Cricket - please consider buying caps from our existing
stock while it lasts (contact DJM for details).

HSP
receive Lancashire Cup bye
The
draw for the 2010 Barclays Wealth LCB Knockout Cup gave
Hindley St. Peter's a bye into the second round. HSP, who
were the very last team out of the hat, will be at home
to either Uppermill of the Saddleworth League, or Ribblesdale
League side Great Harwood. Both teams were runners-up in
their respective leagues in 2009.
Uppermill
& Great Harwood must play their first round match by
Sunday 16th May, and HSP then take on the winners no later
than Sunday 6th June.

Manchester
Association fixtures released
The
1st & 2nd XI league & cup fixtures have now been
released. As usual the season begins with the Divisional
Cup ("the Surridge") on Saturday 17th April with
the 1st XI away at Whalley Range and the 2nd XI at home
to Deane & Derby.
The
league season begins on Saturday 22nd May with both teams
facing Winton (1st XI at home).
Brooksbottom
are the opponents for both teams in the H.C. Smith and J.C.
Worthington Cups. These matches will be played on Sunday
20th June (1st XI at home) with the winners of each match
going through to face either Wythenshawe or Euxton in the
quarter finals.

3rd
XI find out 2010 opponents
With
the expansion of the Liverpool Comp and disbanding of the
Merseyside & Southport Alliance, the Southport League
has gained a number of extra teams for 2010. As a result
of the restructuring HSP 3rd XI find themselves in Division
3 for the new season (though after just one win in 2009
we would probably have been there anyway!).
Joining
us in Division 3 are familiar faces from Ashworth, Bedford
Park, Darwen 4th and Halsall West End 2nd, while we renew
acquaintances with Aughton and Dalton 2nd XIs. New teams
we will encounter in 2010 are Goose Green 1st, Prescot &
Odyssey 3rd, Skelmersdale 3rd and Whitefield 2nd, and we
also face Winstanley Park 2nd after mixing it with their
first team in recent years.
The
new structure largely removes the anomaly of our 3rd XI
having to face other clubs' 1st XIs on a regular basis as,
apart from Ashworth and Bedford Park (both of whom only
run one team) and Goose Green's 1st XI, all the other teams
we will encounter this season are second, third or even
fourth string sides. All in all 2010 is shaping up to be
a competitive and enjoyable season.
The
season begins for the 3rd XI on Saturday 17th April when
new boys Prescot & Odyssey 3rd XI face an Aspull initiation.
Last year's marathon seven-game home stint is fortunately
banished to history where it belongs. We do face three consecutive
home matches in June, although the compensation for this
is that the last three games of the season are away.

Competing

drawn at home against Winstanley Park (2nd XI), to be played
on Sunday 9th May.
