Pleased to hear Bishopthorpe have had some impetus after the publicity of their struggles for players. Reminds me of the interview of Glasshouses I did last year which happily also ended positively on the recruitment front. Not always easy to find enough players or volunteers.

We have had a great response to the publicity and it looks like we will live to fight another day, but new members are still welcome.

For those who have the access thetimes.co.uk/article/when-… Preparing to go again with @BishCC today - but the body’s ‘love’ is not matching the mind anymore!
