ClubMark Status Achieved

Ober the past 2 years Alconbury Cricket Club have been working hard towards achieving the ECB ClubMark status. A status that recognises the structure and direction of the cricket club.
The ClubMark status is hard to achieve and requires dedication from committee level right through to the players.

On Thursday 27th November 2008, Chairman Mick Gunney was presented with the ClubMark certificate from the Huntingdonshire Cricket Board marking this acheivement. A big well done to everyone involved.

Lets keep up the good work.
