We are also becoming far more Community orientated. We have Club and School working partnership with St Osmund’s, School and Dorchester Middle School. We also have forged good relationships with the Town Council and appreciate the work undertaken by the Council officials.

The Executive Committee were pleased to accept the offer from the ECB of £5000 to be placed on their Pitch Upgrade Scheme which was completed in November 2003. The Town Council kindly made up the shortfall.

Other projects include the arrival of covers for the wicket in 2005 and we would like to thank Colin Bowden of Dickinson and Bowden for a substantial contribution to their costs and to the vice presidents who contributed to the balance required.

The new score box was completed during the 2009 Season and are thanks go to Shaun Hearn/Ian Pollock and Simon Guy who project managed the building and local builders who donated some of their time.

We at the club have been proactive by increasing the numbers of qualified coaches and first aiders. We also agreed to pay for our groundsman, to become a member of the newly formed Dorset Association of Groundsmen.

The Youth Section goes from strength to strength and we have increased the number of teams entered into the various leagues. A qualified coach has been appointed to each of the sides to encourage good technique and improve the standard of play.
