| | Last Updated on Wednesday, 10 October 2012 11:30 | Footwear PolicyFriendly reminder to all teams & players as the WMCL season is about to start:
Please adhere to the WMCL policy with regards to footwear on all our cricket fields.
Players are allowed to wear only wear rubber-soled cricket shoes or regular sneakers on WMCL pitches. No one should be wearing metal cleats, or football/soccer cleats. We have spent several thousand dollars on the astroturf and have noticed that such cleats are causing damage to the mat.
Going forward, umpires will be looking out for players wearing cleats and will have the authority to not allow them to get on the mat wearing these shoes. Please pass the information to your bowlers/batsmen so that they can take corrective measures ahead of time.
Thanks! | | Last Updated on Monday, 27 February 2012 23:20 | |
