Moreton Rangers are pleased to have purchased their new tractor for ground maintenance.<br />

The club have been fundraising to buy a tractor as we had a roller and grass topper with no means of using them. This tractor will<br />

help us maintain the ground at a good standard which along with a ball and goals is essential before you kick off any game.<br />

A friend of the club for many years Bob Noctor had been helping us with pitch marking and maintenance so we are now able to<br />

share the load with other club members having access to the equipment.<br />

We would like thank all those who supported us in the tractor purchase. Everyone who put the green tokens in the Warner<br />

Budgens community collection helped with raising over £800 for us. We also had support from the Edith Mann Trust and Moreton<br />

Charities, along with our own fundraising.<br />

The ground at London Road is starting to take shape with the final touches around the changing rooms being finished.<br />

Moreton have a new website courtesy of BOX- 3 which can be found at moretonrangersfc.com Ignore all other sites related to the<br />

club.<br />

Can I make an appeal to all those who use the Playing Fields to clear their rubbish up after them and that no dogs are<br />

permitted. This is a playing field for adults and children and not a dog exercise area.<br />

Stow on the Wold Cricket Club<br />

With the summer fast approaching, Stow Cricket Club is back and ready to go. The team has started indoor nets and is preparing for the<br />

new season. If anyone would like to come along and get involved as a player, sponsor or supporter please do not hesitate to get in touch<br />

with the captain, Ashley Andrews for more information.<br />

A great deal of work has gone into the maintenance of the square this winter and the club would particularly like to hear from anyone<br />

interested in giving up some time to look after the playing area during the summer. They will be given all the help and resources they need<br />

to keep Stow playing. If you would like to help, please contact the<br />

chairman, Tom Knight on 01451 870238.<br />

The team starts playing in <strong>April</strong> with some pre-season friendlies before<br />

the league campaign kicks off in May. Once again, the lads will be<br />

playing in CDCA Division 1. There is also a midweek 20/20 league that<br />

Stow has joined this year. This is very much going to be a learning curve<br />

to begin with and something that will be most enjoyable. Along with the<br />

regular Sunday and midweek friendlies that have been arranged there is<br />

a lot of cricket to be played at Stow this year.<br />
