ONGAR CRICKET CLUB JOINS THE T RIPPON ESSEX LEAGUE

Following the recent T Rippon league AGM Ongar CC have been elected as members of the T Rippon Essex league.

The club will enter one team in the league and we have been allocated division 4 for 2012.  There are 12 divisions in total (from Premier to Division 11) so the club has the opportunity to rise up through the leagues in the coming seasons.

This is a fantastic opportunity for the club, offering us the chance to grow and move forward.  It will allow the members to enjoy their cricket against new opponents and at new grounds.

Please contact a committee member if you require further information or are interesting in playing in what promises to be a very exciting 2012 season for the club.
