Today's spring-like weather brings to mind the return of the cricket season.
Brigg Town Cricket Club has withdrawn its top two teams from the Lincoln League and the Grimsby Saturday League and joined the East Yorkshire Alliance.
History will be made on Saturday May 4 when Town play their first fixtures in the North Bank-based competition.
The first team will be at home to Marist at Brigg Recreation Ground, while the second team trek over the Humber Bridge to visit Humbleton Ramblers.
Brigg's top side will be playing in division three, with the second team in division four.
Saturday, May 17 will see a very interesting fixture when Brigg entertain East Halton - the only other North Lincolnshire team in the competition.
So a new era for the cricket club dawns, and we will keep you posted on Brigg Blog and in my In A Spin and Brigg Extra pages in the Scunthorpe Telegraph.
Prospective new players - junior and senior - who want to get in touch with the club should contact new secretary Lee Fielden (pictured) on 07787715825.
