County Team Day Report

On Sunday 13th August players from all reaches of Devon gathered at ISCA in Exeter. All were invited to the County Team Day by Richard and Robert Ivings, County Team Coordinators. The event gives both Richard (Premier Team) & Robert (A Team) a chance to select their teams for the coming season. Christow players were well represented on the day. The players were split into 2 groups, 3 (Steve, Tom & Trevor) Christow players with Richard and the remaining 7 (Ava, Brad, Carol, Ian, Neil, Ralph & Sean) with Robert. The day started for the A team players with a Fours match followed by a coffee break. Bowling got under way again with 2 sessions of Pairs followed by lunch.. The day finished off with 2 Triples and 2 Fours matches. It was an enjoyable and very challenging day playing with different bowlers and on the new County mats. Selection can occur any time during the season and sometimes at very short notice. Selected players for the first match on 17th September will be notified by 3rd September. Good luck to all.
