Ongar Cricket club is looking for new players for the 2010 season.

We play in the Shepherd Neame Essex League and field 2 Saturday sides. We also have a Sunday XI (playing friendlies).

Ongar is in West Essex (North East of London) and is just 15 mins drive from the end of the Central line or Shenfield on the overland rail service (20mins from Liverpool St).

We welcome all cricketers of any standard, and in particular those with league experience including overseas players already based in London or Essex.

I am pleased to say I completed my half marathon (13 miles) last Sunday at Reading in 2hrs 27mins without stopping!!!
Feeling fit and ready to go for the season which I am confident will be a very successful one for OCC.

Hi guys

With the cricket season starting in April I thought I better start getting fit!! I also wanted to do something worthwhile and make a difference. So, I thought I would combine the two, and the result....I'm running the Reading Half Marathon (13.1 MILES!!) on Sunday 21st March and raising money for Against Breast Cancer, and I'd really appreciate your support. It's easy to donate online by credit or debit card - just go to my JustGiving page: http://www.justgiving.com/RakeshBagga

JustGiving sends your donation straight to Against Breast Cancer and automatically reclaims Gift Aid if you're a UK taxpayer, so your donation is worth even more. Its for a good cause and I hope you'll join me in supporting Against Breast Cancer.


Thank you.
Rakesh
