Where: The Convent Field, Lewes
Teams
Notes
Everyone who wants to play puts their name into a hat and then the names are drawn at random, with each of the captains leading the teams. This means everyone can play without worrying about fielding a full team and also people who were playing for teams that have pulled out of the league can also play plus any extra family or friends can come along too. It also means that one team won't dominate the evening as all the players will be mixed up.
The format of the evening will be as follows, but possibly subject to amendment depending on the number of players:
- 4 teams on each pitch, each play each other with the top 2 teams going into the semi final.
- 2 (possibly 3) overs overs each way
- Shorter boundaries, but 6 is out
- Retire after 15 runs (or 20 if playing more overs) with a different opener each time - this gives everyone a chance to bat
- Different bowlers for each over in each game
- Semi final and final
There will be a £1 charge for each person to enter to cover the cost of the pitch. Each team should bring a raffle prize. Any proceeds from the night will be used for new equipment like bats, balls or flags.
This tournament is listed in the Lewes League, 2008 season.
