The Lymington Cricket Club Development Fund was launched in 1995 in order to provide the facilities consistent with the stature of Lymington Cricket Club. Since its inception, the Development Fund has raised more than £8000 and has enabled the club to improve facilities at the Sports Ground. The fund has so far financed the acquisition of new sightscreens, two new artificial practice wickets, new nets, a water-hog to mop up surface water on the square, and covers to protect the wicket. This season we intend to purchase new furniture for the clubhouse.

Of course, as well as raising vital funds for the development of the club, the Fund has paid out £1000 in total prize money over the past eight seasons.The Development Fund takes the form of four draws which will take place during the cricket season at the clubhouse on the final Saturday of each month. The prize money for each draw this year has been increased to £100, £50 and £20, while the cost of membership of the Development Fund has been capped at a modest £20.

Adie Hunt Last year under the expert management of Ben Sanger we enrolled around 100 members into the Development Fund. This year Adrian Hunt has taken over from Ben and hopes to at least equal Ben's splendid effort. To enter the Development Fund please contact Adrian on 01590 677305 (home) or 07834 976809 (mobile). In the early stages of the season Adie will almost certainly be hassling you to join the Fund . . . please don't run away - it's all for a very good cause!
