Bredon Cricket Club’s outdoor nets have partially re-opened following the Government’s relaxation of lockdown rules.
Two people from different households can now use outdoor nets together under the new guidelines on exercise, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has said.
Two people from separate households may take part in the same net session, and there is no limit to the number if those taking part come from the same household.
A strict booking process is in place for the use of nets at Bredon.
Anyone wishing to practise must first book their session with club chairman Neil Hall. Text 07824 365055. Use of the nets is restricted to those who have paid their special £10 membership fee for 2020.
One-on-one coaching is permitted, but social distancing (keeping at least two metres apart at all times) applies. No sweat or saliva should be rubbed on the ball, and nets should be operated on an “every other” basis, meaning two adjacent lanes should not be in use at the same time.
The clubhouse will remain closed.
• The club has launched a new £10-for-all membership scheme to help the club survive the restrictions on sport caused by the coronavirus crisis. Find out more.
