Thoughts are beginning to turn to the 2022 cricket season for Brigg, Broughton and Hibaldstow teams now that the hours of daylight are getting longer and Spring is not far distant.
Provisional fixtures were sent out to clubs by the Lincolnshire County Cricket League four weeks ago to allow possible re-arrangements to be mutually agreed.
We have asked Brigg Town to keep us notified if they switch the dates of any matches that appear on the official fixture list.
Brigg - based at the Recreation Ground, off Wrawby Road - have already re-arranged their opening game in the newly-formed Division Three West from against Messingham 2nds from April 23 until late in the season. The Rec will still be hosting football until the beginning of May.
Broughton 2nds are also playing in Division Three West. Broughton's first teamers are in Division One, with Hibaldstow playing in Division Two.
