CRICKET OPENER

Brigg Town Cricket Club starts life in a totally new competition tomorrow (Saturday).
Having been members of the Lincoln League, the Lincolnshire County League and the Grimsby and District Saturday League in recent seasons, our club has now joined the East Yorkshire Cricket Alliance.
And tomorrow sees the club's first match in this competition - played by Brigg's second team, away to Humbleton 2nds, in division four.
On Monday, Brigg 2nds are also away - taking on North Ferriby 2nds in a bank holiday fixture.
Operating in division three, Brigg first teamers begin their season on Saturday, May 10 - with a visit to Cherry Burton.
The club's first home game in the competition will be at the Recreation Ground, off Wrawby Road, on Saturday, May 17 when the first team hosts East Halton - the only other club from the South Bank of the Humber taking part in the East Yorkshire Alliance.
For further details about Brigg Town CC, contact first team captain Lee Fielden (07787 715825)or second team skipper Phil Dewfall (07738 677910). Phil is pictured above, next to the club's scorebox.
The club is also running junior teams in the Intersport Scunthorpe League, and has entered the West Wold Midweek League for the very first time.
So it promises to be a busy season all round.
