| Waitrose AppealNew! |
|
From today, Chorleywood Cricket club is one of three local bodies who will be vying for votes in the latest Waitrose Community Matters charity initiative in their store in Rickmansworth.
This is a scheme where three local charities get chosen each month to receive part of a £1000 donation. A poster for each charity is put at the welcome desk with a tube below. Each customer is given a token for which they can use as a vote, they put this token in relievent tube. At the end of the month the tokens get weighed and each body will receive a portion as per percentage of tokens they receive, ie 50% tokens = £500.
There is no lower limit to the value of purchases that you need to make in order to qualify - each purchase gets you a token.
So please, if you are able to, get along to Waitrose in Rickmansworth as often as you can in the next month and cast your vote - the more times you do it, the more money the club will receive!!!
Many thanks for your help with this - to borrow a line from another supermarket "every little helps"!

| John AyresNew! |
|
It is with much regret that we report the death of John Ayres. John was for many years associated with local sports clubs. Firstly with Old Fullerians Rugby Club where, after retiring from playing, he took over the running of their successful Colts sides and then became for many years a most efficient Club Fixture Secretary.
In the summer John played for both Rickmansworth and Chorleywood Cricket Clubs and, although not a regular with Rickmansworth First XI, he made a habit of taking vital wickets when playing for Ricky against Chorleywood in the late 1960's and early 1970's.
At Chorleywood John will be most remembered for forming the "Chorleywood Strollers" in the early 1980's. This was a side designed for those of all age grooups who had neither the time nor the inclination to play regular league cricket. Their fixtures were mostly against good village sides and whilst played seriously also allowed for honesty, good sportsmanship, good humour and good socialising at the end of the matches. These qualities epitomised all that John stood for and the Strollers continue to this day. John was made a Vice-President of Chorleywood Cricket Club for his significant contribution to the Club.
John, we will miss you especially, as will your daughters Joanna and Karen who have all our thoughts and sympathy at this time.
The funeral is at Amersham crematorium on Tuesday 27th January at 2.30pm

The league averages have been published..pride of place goes to Luke who topped the Div 2 batting lists and was the only player in all Divs hit 1000 runs...The Watson twins were 5th and 7th in the bowling! Ben and Tom appear in the Div 6 batting table and yet again Russel H represents us in the bowling. Tomsie and Jonny Lyons were 3rd and 6th in the Div 10 batting averages with Sinders our top bowler..and Rosie gets a special mention for being top wicket taker in Div 14 and had the best bowling performance with 6-21
