WANTED! Help collecting cricket line scores on Saturday evenings for the 18 weeks of the Francis Clark Devon Cricket League season, writes Conrad Sutcliffe.Long-serving Stephen Birley has decided to stand down which leaves me in need of some help providing the fullest round up of the Devon League action.
Four divisions need collating every Saturday night – starting on May 4. They are:
E Division 1st XI
F Division 1st XI
D Division East 2nd XI
E Division East 2nd XI
Part of the job is to compile running tables in newspaper format – which is 7 columns wide. Tuition given
A regular commitment is required, although the odd night off can be covered.
The good news is there is money available to cover expenses. You won’t be out of pocket at all.
How you collect the scores is up to you. After nearly 30 years of doing them myself, I can offer plenty of advice.
There is also an opportunity for someone interested in writing reports to get involved with the coverage on the DCB website and also in local papers. This may suit someone considering a career in journalism. Again there is money available to cover expenses.
If interested, call me on 07767 622530 or drop an email to conradcopy@btinternet.com as soon as you can.
