Junior Cricket - Season closing  Parents vs Kids and Dads vs Lads matches on Saturday

The strangest (and shortest) ever junior cricket season concludes this Saturday with the Parents vs Kids and Dads vs Lads matches from 10 o'clock. With no other matches this season thanks to Covid-19 restrictions on contacts with other clubs, and a limit of one parent per session, the youngsters are confident of victory and have said so. Several Dads have confessed that they will be batting from memory entirely, so an upset is very much on the cards. Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this season, and to the kids who have turned up every week despite all the restrictions and difficulties.

Cricket News - Kerala Tuskers - KTA CC Match Report (20 September)

Sunday 20th September saw the return of the Kerala Tuskers to Meudon for the first time this season. With the sun shining down the Tuskers won the toss and decided to bat and got off to a racing start with their top three putting on 100 within just 10 overs and ending up with a daunting 294 run target.

Cricket News - Sat 19 Sept - SAC v Thoiry CC John Hardy Shield Leg 3, saved by the weather

Saturday saw a strong SAC side take to the field in the 3rd leg of the John Hardy Shield with Thoiry already having a 2-0 lead and thereby retaining it for another year. The SAC lost the toss and were inserted which was handy as the some of the XI weren’t at the ground yet! Openers Yeasin and Praneeth were soon rolling along at a healthy 6-7 an over and as time went on the pace accelerated such that Thoiry left the field savaged with the SAC 320-8 off 40 overs. The Thoiry response began at a higher tempo than the SAC's and at 44-1 off 4 overs was the home side's total enough? The bowling unit then started to rein in the score until torrential rain came at 15 overs with the score on 84-3 with Thoiry requiring 9.48 runs an over to win. Read on!

Bridge News - Playing Bridge safely

The FFB has communicated COVID safe play guidelines to regular (licensed) players. The guidelines are reproduced here for the casual player, who may not have seen them.

Briefly, it is now strongly recommended that everyone wear a mask, that we wash our hands often, in soap and water or with the "gel hydroalcoolique", keep a certain distance from the other players at the table by using a larger table the surface of which can be cleaned regularly and using the same bidding box for a whole afternoon/evening session. Read on for the full guidelines (in French).
