Confusion over Ardleigh Green midweek fixture
After some confusion, the fixture was never intended for this Friday 17/08/07, but for the 7th September as announced on this website prior to the season starting.
So to confirm this fixture goes ahead at 14.00 hours on the 7th September 2007.

Dear Members,
We would be grateful if you could take a time out to view the two points below.

You can claim discount by making your purchase via the website and, once you have received your goods, pass a copy of the receipt to the Club Treasurer, Jim Robertson and you will be forwarded a cheque for 50% of the purchase price. This offer has come our way due to some external funding from the Essex Community Foundation. So to qualify you must purchase from the nine listed items shown under the Belhus CC Shop link. This is a limited offer, but it will remain open until the funds claimed by our youth members exceeds the amount passed to us by The Essex Community Foundation.
Do you shop online or have you ever considered doing so? If you do in the future you could also earn the club some funds simply by using the following website: -

Praise for Belhus Volunteers
Volunteers from Belhus Cricket Club have been praised for assisting with a Thurrock Primary School's girls kwik cricket tournament which was staged by Thurrock Council's Sport and Leisure Department in association with William Edwards Sports College on Tuesday (2nd May 2006). Volunteers from Belhus CC were U15 team members Michael Fogg, Gavin Jefferies and Bradley Sheridan with Lisa Cansdale acting as scorer. The event was on by Stifford Clays Junior School, who now go on to represent Thurrock in the Essex Youth Games, to be held at Garons Leisure Park in Southend on Saturday 17th June (2006). Both Nicole Napier, sports and leisure officer from Thurrock Council and Cliff Cansdale, hon. youth chairman of Belhus CC have expressed their thanks for the volunteers for giving up their spare time to assist. "Bradley, Gavin and Michael are a credit to their parents and their school for their tremendous support they have given. Thurrock Council will be providing evidence of their community involvement for use towards their assessment for the GCSE in Physical Education", said Cliff Cansdale.
Belhus awarded ClubSX Gold
Club SX is the Club Accreditation Scheme for Sports clubs in Essex. The scheme has proved extremely popular since its launch last year, and was set up to ensure that quality sports clubs receive the recognition they deserve.
The scheme can act as a stepping stone for those clubs already working towards their National Governing Body Club Accreditation. Clubs that already have this award can also apply for Club SX to further promote their club.
Belhus Achieve ClubMark accreditation
Following months of preparation and training, we learned on 6th June 2005 that we have been awarded with the England and Wales Cricket Board's "ClubMark" accreditation, which shows the club to be a "safe and effective, child-friendly club". David Leighton, National Manager for Cricket Clubs from the England and Wales Cricket Board said: "I congratulate Belhus Cricket Club on being one of a selected number of cricket clubs across England and Wales to achieve ClubMark accreditation. The principles behind achieving accreditation are important, and ensure that your club are now in a position to continue developing and delivering high quality community cricket to the current and future members of your club and specifically to young cricketers. The hard work your club has put in has been recognised by the England and Wales Cricket Board, your County Cricket Board, Sport England, and by partners locally. However, the hard work does not stop here. It is now the responsibility of all club members to uphold and continue the best practice you have put in place as part of the ClubMark process, and continue to thrive as a community cricket club. On behalf of the England and Wales Cricket Board, I would like to congratulate and thank you all once more for your commitment and dedication to community club cricket".
