Hereward House are making a 2nd attempt at their Sports Day this Friday afternoon, 1st July, from 1-5pm, having been rained off last week; and St Agnes School will have their Sports Day next Wednesday afternoon from 12:30pm.
These events may affect car parking as parents may attend the events. At the moment car parking in Harman Drive has been reduced by pavement replacement and road works. There is plenty of parking in other roads around the area.
THIS SUNDAY We do hope you have all kept Sunday 3rd July free for all the fun of the PHCC Cricket Fest - it all starts at 10am and will run through until around 2pm.
There is tons for children of all ages to enjoy - mail Rachel Beagles at : [email protected]and let her know you are coming.
Please let Rachel know if you can bring either a salad or a cake for around 10 people - or a veggie option if you prefer (ideally a quiche). Rachel will let know the preference when you confirm.
This is a special day for the whole club - please do make sure you come along. Bring the family!
Great Grub
We know all the mums (and/or dads) will do us proud with the food. And the BBQ will be something to behold - meat and veg from all over the cricketing world: Aussie Burgers, Indian Tandoori and even South African boerwors - the best sausage on the planet!
Pitch Vision will be there!
We're delighted to tell you we've managed to secure Pitch Vision set to be at Bron throughout the day - this magical contraption can analyse batting technique, assess bowling style and review your son or daughter's game. And it has a speed gun too!
Get there early to put your child's name down for a time slot.

There will be lots of space for all young Primrose Hillers to play their own cricket games and enjoy a chance to run around.
Our apologies to members coming by car; currently there are 2 piles of gravel in the car park taking up space and creating a hazard. This material has been delivered for use to replace one of the artificial cricket wickets shortly. Meanwhile it is in the way and an eyesore – we do know and it will be used as soon as possible.
There are a few important pieces of information which you should read, and these should be relayed to all adult members of your family (and juniors nearing their 18th birthday) if you are the household member receiving club newsletters for the whole family:-
As before, all communication to members will be by email, unless you let us know otherwise.
All paid up full adult or life members of the Company have voting rights, social members do not.
When a junior member in a family becomes 18, he/she will automatically become a voting member of the Company. He/she will not receive individual notification of this.
Should other members of your household unit wish to receive newsletters separately, they should inform Edward Ben-Nathan who looks after our website, by email on [email protected] explaining which newsletters they wish to receive – tennis, squash and/or Club.
One of the reasons for becoming incorporated is to help the Club to become a CASC (Community Amateur Sports Club) which has many tax advantages. We have now started this process and will let you know when we have registered as a CASC.
Now that the Cricket season has started (someone tell the weatherman please) the Bar opening hours are:-
Tuesday 6pm-10pm
Thursday 7pm-11pm
Friday 7pm-12 midnight

Sky TV will be available in the clubhouse from next week for the Summer period.
This week the Clubhouse floor in the front loggia is being relaid. If access is not possible, then use the side door to the men’s changing rooms to get to the toilets. The work will be finished by Friday. The new floor is designed to be spike proof and will continue to improve the look of the clubhouse.
This Sunday is the first day the new Primrose Hill Cricket Colts will join us; it is a work day when parents arehelping get the clubhouse and cricket section into a good shape.

Primrose Hill Cricket Club
Hopefully you have been into the club house and seen the redecorating work going on there. This is mostly thanks to Primrose Hill cricket club (PHCC), whose Colts section have merged with our own Colts. PHCC are also helping with upgrading the Cricket facilities – a modernised Scoreboard, new Astroturf Strip and new practice nets. This is an amazing opportunity for both Bron and PHCC.
Details of the new coaching programme is to be found pdf
