Chairmans Message
May I take this opportunity to wish all our members, spectators, friends, players, committee, and
volunteers a very happy and prosperous year.

2018 was no doubt a challenging year for us a as club but my thanks must initially go to our
three captains, Jon, Chris and Jonathan, for their hard work in encouraging, cajoling and
developing our players in the Bury way.

Our first eleven started well, had a difficult middle and a good end to the season finishing fifth.
Gustav Nolte our South African overseas player topped the bowling figures by taking fifty seven
wickets with four five wicket hauls. Asif Iqbal top scored in the league with 653 runs closely
followed by Ben Gorton with 623 runs.

Our second team had an excellent season finishing second in the league in a division that
consisted of four first elevens and gaining promotion. Special mentions to Arshad Raza on being
leading wicket taker and to two young newcomers to the club Nathan Ramsay and Lee Halliwell
who I am sure will through the 2019 season be aiming to get into the first team.

Our thirds had an excellent season finishing second in the league with Zain Khan top scoring and
our captain Jonathan Stackhouse being leading wicket taker.

Our fourth team played a number of friendly games throughout the region and will continue to do
so.

Our Juniors continue to develop and I wish to thank Sam Holt and his dedicated helpers, Maddy,
Jordan, Dominic, Matt and the excellent group of managers and support staff.

It would be equally remiss not to thank Susan for her excellent work in the pavilion, my fellow
committee members for all their efforts and to our scorers, James, Josh, and Freddie our thanks
go once again for their excellent efforts.

We were honoured to be considered as one of the four clubs of the year for Lancashire winning
the award for South Lancashire, in addition we were reaccredited for Club Mark and also hosted
six Lancashire Cricket Club boys and girls fixtures and the finals of the Lancashire ECB Under
19’s T20 Final and the Lancashire under 13’s Club Final.

On Ground related matters we have applied for a grant to improve the remainder of the outfield,
improve the car parking and add additional fencing and benches.

We are just a year away from 2020, the 175th anniversary of our formation as a club which also
coincides with 100 years at Radcliffe Road and we will begin to formulate plans this year for that.
Our aim on the playing front is for all our teams to progress and we hope that we can continue to
develop our players. To that end this year we are pleased to announce that Martin Kay has
agreed to become our senior coach and that Sam Holt has joined us a player. We can confirm
that our two overseas players will be Wicardo Visser from South Africa and Milton Shumba from
Zimbabwe.

Our golf day continues to go from strength to strength and our 7th Annual Event will take place
on Friday 11th May at Pike Fold. Your support is welcome.

Last year’s summer tour of Wales was an even greater success than before and was enjoyed by
all. The tour week will commence on Tuesday 23rd July at Bangor followed by Mochdre CC on the
Wednesday, before finishing at Colwyn Bay on the Thursday. If you have not been it is not to be
missed.

We are also very pleased that Archway Building Services will continue as Main Club Sponsor for
this season.

Mark Smith – Chairman

Pete Allen
It's always difficult to summarise a player so soon after they have left us. I think you can reflect
on a player with rose tinted glasses and get misty eyed about ambient summers past, but Pete
Allen was simply the best amateur wicket keeper I ever played with and in the top two I'd either
played with, or against.

When I first came to                                              Bury CC almost 35 years ago, he
was the first person to                                           welcome me at winter nets, but it
wasn't until the                                                  summer that I realised the
standards he set. In                                              the modern age, he was an old
fashioned glove man.                                              He just did his job behind the
sticks with the                                                   minimum of fuss and like all
talented players, made                                            the hard stuff look routine.

His batting was no                                               great shakes but he held his
place on the purity of                                           his glove work. If there was any
discussion about                                                 someone else who might keep
and score more runs, the bowlers would chip in with the value of that low one-handed catch or a
leg side stumping that was worth more than a tidy 20 with the bat. It was always a seismic shock
when a chance slipped from his grasp and his work up to the stumps off the quicks caught out
many an opening bat taking liberties with their footwork at the crease.

As most keepers, he was the constant voice to drive the team and could pass comment with the
best of them, but this was not abuse just a sly poke or dig at a failing in someone's technique or
a caustic remark, just to keep the batsmen on their toes. The difference was it was never
personal and he still could say 'good shot' to the batter if he unfurled something that was easy
on the eye and maintained that ethos of the game. I can recall that he always made a point of
having a beer with the opposition after the game, something that appears to have drifted from
the game, but opposition became friends rather than someone you just played against twice a
year.

His passing the day of his 60th birthday leaves a void that will be as hard to fill as his gloves
were when he decided his knees had enough and he needed to try somewhere else. As all good
wicketkeepers, he was the heartbeat of the fielding side and now that heart is finally still he can
sit back and watch from above, when the sun is always warm on your back and the beer is always
cold.

RIP Pete Allen

The Spirit of Cricket and the Laws of the
                       Game
                                 The Spirit of Cricket
Cricket owes much of its appeal and enjoyment to the fact that it should be played not only
according to the Laws, but also within the Spirit of Cricket.

The major responsibility for ensuring fair play rests with the captains, but extends to all players,
umpires and, especially in junior cricket, teachers, coaches and parents.

       •      Respect is central to the Spirit of Cricket.
       •      Respect your captain, team-mates, opponents and the authority of the umpires.
       •      Play hard and play fair.
       •      Accept the umpire’s decision.
       •      Create a positive atmosphere by your own conduct, and encourage others to do
              likewise.
       •      Show self-discipline, even when things go against you.
       •      Congratulate the opposition on their successes, and enjoy those of your own team.
       •      Thank the officials and your opposition at the end of the match, whatever the result.
       •      Cricket is an exciting game that encourages leadership, friendship and teamwork,
              which brings together people from different nationalities, cultures and religions,
              especially when played within the Spirit of Cricket.

                              The Laws of the Game
In 2018 there was a number of major and minor changes to the Laws of Cricket for the 2018.
These are only a summary:

       •      Now written in language applying to all persons, regardless of gender.
       •      The Handled the ball Law has been deleted, with its contents merged into
              Obstructing the field.
       •      The Lost ball Law has been deleted and is now covered under Dead ball.
       •      Limits placed on the thickness of the edges and the overall depth of the bat.
       •      Injuries hoped to be prevented in a new Law which allow mechanisms tethering the
              bails to the stumps.
       •      Bowling of deliberate front foot No balls to be treated in same way as deliberate
              full-tosses.
Bury Cricket Club 2019 - crichq.site
•      A new Law of the game, Law 42, Players’ conduct, is introduced, giving an in-match
              consequence for poor on-field behaviour.
       •      The Law regarding running out the non-striker has been altered.
       •      'Bouncing bat’ Law changed, substitutes now allowed to keep wicket and concept of
              penalty time amended.

                            Law 42 Players’ conduct:
This is a new Law that deals specifically with players’ misconduct and is introduced
following widespread consultation, surveys with players and umpires and a series
of trials of the different levels of sanctions.

It is widely accepted that there is a need both to provide the umpires with
appropriate on-field sanctions to deal with deteriorating levels of behaviour, not
just to report such matters, and that there should be different levels of sanction
leading to sending off for acts of violence.

Four different levels of offences have been created, with Level 4 being the most
serious. The umpires shall determine into which of the Levels an unfair action
falls and will apply the appropriate sanction.

The four levels of sanction are set as:

       •      Level 1: Warning then 5 penalty runs to the opposition for a repeat offence.
       •      Level 2: 5 Penalty runs to the opposition.
       •      Level 3: Offending player is suspended for a number of overs, depending
              on the length of the match, plus 5 Penalty runs to the opposition.
       •      Level 4: Offending player is removed from the field for the rest of the
              match, plus 5 Penalty runs to the opposition.

All breaches, including the first offence under Level 1, will attract a report to the
Executive of the Team(s) and the Governing Body.

For all offences under Level 1-4, the umpire will call Time and summon the relevant
captain, who will be informed of the breach of Law and the associated penalty. If
appropriate, the umpire will instruct the captain to remove the offending player
from the field.

New signals for Level 3 and Level 4 offences have been created, which are covered
in Law 2.13. The signal for each offence is made to the scorers, not the player, and
Bury Cricket Club 2019 - crichq.site
starts with the umpire putting an arm out to the side of the body and repeatedly
raising it and lowering it.

For Level 3 offences, this is followed by raising both
hands, all fingers spread, to shoulder height, palms facing towards the scorers.

For Level 4 offences, the first part is followed by raising an index finger, held at shoulder
height, to the side of the body.

In the, hopefully unlikely, event that a Captain refuses to comply with the umpires’
instructions under Level 3 or 4 then they will consider awarding the match if one
captain is involved or abandoning the match if both refuse to comply and it is
impossible to resolve matters. This is covered in Law 42.6.

Law 42.7 clarifies that, if it is the wicket-keeper who is suspended or sent off, a
substitute will not be allowed to keep-wicket. It also makes clear that, if the Level
3 or 4 offence is committed by a substitute or a runner, the player for whom they
are fielding / running will be affected by the punishment.

This system is designed to give the umpires on-field penalties to tackle poor
behaviour. However, as with other penalties under the Laws, these new sanctions
are intended as deterrents, the presence of which should reduce the frequency of
poor behaviour, so that they would only rarely be applied

These changes in the majority of cases specifically relate to discipline and the code of conduct.
Captains will continue to be responsible for their teams behaviour, on field penalties may well
result in the captain having to remove a player from the field of play and penalty runs being
awarded by the umpires.
It is imperative that all players, members and club officials strictly adhere to these laws.

Match ball sponsorship is a key aid to running of the club, helping to fund not only the purchase
  of cricket balls but also various match day running costs such as umpires and scorers. We
  anticipate spending over a £1000 this coming season on balls alone for senior and junior
                                            matches

            40 fixtures to choose from, please contact Wayne on 07856 355424 for
                                       more information.
