WITH the new cricket season getting closer, junior training at Minehead Cricket Club has been underway for several weeks under the watchful eye of the new junior organiser Andy Dyer who has taken over from Barry Swann.

In addition to Andy the other coaches involved with the juniors are Harry Tudball, Brian Penny and Ian Goodrum.

Andy said: “Numbers at the training sessions have been very good particularly in the Under 11 and 13 age groups, but we could do with a few more players in the Under 15s.

“A lot of those coming along to training in the younger age groups started playing through All Stars and have carried on through the age groups which is really good.”

This year All Stars takes place at Minehead CC on a Thursday evening, starting in Mayand anyone who has booked before can have priority access as from April 3 by logging onto the ECB website and clicking on All Stars. Reminders about All Stars will be posted on the club’s Facebook page.

This year the Under 11s will be coached by Harry Tudball, the Under 13s by Andy Dyer, and Under 15s by Brian Penny.
