PREMIER LEAGUE CLUBS TO HOST MINOR COUNTIES CRICKET

7/12/2015

0 Comments

 
Bashley (Rydal) and Bournemouth’s Chapel Gate ground will both host Dorset Minor Counties cricket next summer.
Bashley will get an early season MCCA Trophy match, with Chapel Gate hosting two Championship fixtures. 
Other Dorset home matches will be played at North Perrot, near Crewkerne, on the Devon/Somerset border.
Dorset have been forced to seek alternative venues as Dean Park – their headquarters in recent seasons – will no longer be available to them.
Park School, which last year took a license for use of the site and facilities at Dean Park, intends to utilise the pavilion as a crèche.
As a result, Dorset will be unable to host Minor Counties Championship and Knockout Trophy matches at the ground as it no longer meets their requirements.
Dorset also have plans to appoint a professional to their playing staff, while former skipper Sean Walbridge is the county's new chairman. Ex-Essex captain Paul Prichard was last month unveiled as the county's new coach.
Progressive Hampshire League club Parley hope to continue playing their home games at Dean Park.
