Info...

The Addison Cup, the CB Atkinson Tropy, the George Greaves Cup and the MMP Cup are managed by the Harrogate & District Amateur Evening Cricket League and as such, are contested by members of the league.

The Addison Cup is competed for by teams in divisions one and two, the CB Atkinson Trophy by those in divisions three and four and the George Greaves Cup by those in divisions five and six. The MMP Cup is played for by teams who lose in the first round of the George Greaves Cup.

Matches in all competitions take the same form, with all games prior to the final being play on Monday evenings. Games will commence at 6:30pm except for the finals which will begin at 6:15pm. Each team may bat for a maximum of 20 overs, except for fixtures played during the first week of the evening league season where the innings will last a maximum of 18 overs.

No bowler may bowl more than six overs in any one innings and may take no more than a 12 yard run up. Any short-pitched delivery which bounces above the shoulder height of a batsman in his normal stance shall be called a "no-ball".

Should the home team decide that the ground is unfit for play (due to wet weather), a match maybe cancelled no later than 4:00pm on the day of the game. Otherwise, the game may be reduced by a maximum of four overs per side (i.e. 20 overs per side becomes 16, 18 overs per side becomes 14) and must start no later than 7:00pm. If a game is unable to be completed due to further rain interventions it must be replayed on the following Monday or another date mutually agreed by both clubs and approved by the Assistant League Secretary.

In all competitions, the final will be played at a neutral ground.

Judging by Robbo's pictures emerging on Twitter this week (@legsidestumping), it appears that reports of Ark-building down at Calcutt were unfounded.

Welcome to the new season! With drought conditions declared across most of the country during March, it was somewhat inevitable the with cricket would come rain - and April has certainly obliged.

So, something of a false start with all three teams rained-off on day 1, but good look to everyone who pulls on a Forest cap this season - assuming the sun does eventually show itself again!
