Tynedale Cricket Club’s ground is looking fantastic ahead of the 2016 season thanks to the generous support of Northumberland County Council Members Local Improvement Scheme.
The County Council has provided a grant to the Cricket Club based on Eilansgate, Hexham. Councillor Derek Kennedy handed over the keys of the grass cutter with David Common from Rickerby Horticulture to David Evans Tynedale CC’s groundsman of and Christine Fletcher, Junior Secretary.
The new cutter will ensure a high quality playing surface at Priors Flat which is the home ground to the successful Tynedale 1st and 2nd XI’s. Tynedale CC also has over 160 junior members, runs 8 junior teams from U9 – U19 and regularly hosts school, league and county fixtures.
Derek said “This is an excellent club which Hexham is very proud of, it provides great service to the adult and junior teams. The clubhouse also has good facilities and is regularly used for private functions.”
