The idea
Following the news that the ECB has suspended all recreational cricket, the cricket section has no income from match subs this season. The club as a whole can survive from the memberships and some funds coming from the bar delivery service but the cricket section has no income.
The ECB will donate £100 to the cause if we hit at least £100 towards our target. We have decided to set up this crowdfunding page to cover all costs that the section incurs when the season starts.
We want to ensure that there is cricket in Barnton for the whole community to play, watch and enjoy. It will be more important than ever once this is all over!
What we'll deliver
- Help to pay for critical overheads during the COVID-19 crisis
- Invest in improving the practice facilities
- Invest in new equipment for junior coaching and matches
Why it's a great idea
We have been unable to arrange any fundraising events and with no matches being played we have not collected any match subs so we as a section have no income.
With your help, we can avoid having to use the clubs resources to cover any cricket related costs when the season starts.
Steps to get it done
- Run crowdfunding campaign to collect funds
- Pay for essential overheads
- Start planning for the end of the lockdown
