t has come to the League’s attention that some SHPCL clubs are not following the Covid rules as laid down by both the UK Government and the ECB and which have been communicated to all on numerous occasions. Please click below for a reminder of the key rules.
All players aged under 18 must be identified on team sheets, otherwise captains could face suspension.
Given this season’s circumstances, especially since the Luton lockdown was announced, the following section of league rule 14 is being relaxed for this season only: “In the event of a club being unable to fulfil all fixtures on any day, the playing of the senior sides’ match(es) shall take precedence.”

This will be our final update before our league season starts. It has been a long road to get to this point. We started advising all clubs back on 19 March along with the ECB, County and CCC about the effects of the coronavirus. Click more below for the full update
Team Sheets for the 2020 season need to be retained by the captain for a minimum of 28 days after the match. You can download a Team Sheet for use in matches this season.

A reminder that all clubs are members of the Club Cricket Conference and they run a fixture bureau if you have a team looking for a fixture.
For various reasons out of their control some clubs may have problems with ground availability for this period. If you have a spare ground at any stage during this period then let the League know and we will publish in this post
