YOUTH CRICKET
LEAGUE1964 - 2015
"The aim of the League shall be to promote,
encourage and develop youth cricket."
(Rule 15)
Save as below, dates and venues of all games shall be as printed in the fixture list and no points shall attach to a game played otherwise than on that date. Subject as below, cup games which cannot be started or completed because of weather but only such games may be re-arranged for a later date (mutually convenient or in case of absence of agreement as directed by League Management) provided that such is before the fixture list date of the next round. In such event, if the tie is not won by that date both teams shall be deemed defaulted from the next round. Cup games at U17 level only may, if both teams so agree, be re-arranged for a date other than that printed in the fixture list (mutually convenient or in case of absence of agreement as to date as directed by League Management), provided that such is before the fixture list date of the next round. In such event, if the tie is not won by that date both teams shall be deemed defaulted from the next round. Dates of U17 league games may be re-arranged if both teams so agree, but any game so re-rearranged but (for whatever reason) not played to a result shall attract 1 point to each team.

OBITUARIESLionel HarrisonLionel Harrison sadly passed on the 19 November 2014 and will be sadly missed by the cricketing family. Lionel had a long and active association with Blagdon Cricket Club for over 50 years filling many roles within the club. He leaves behind the legacy of Blagdon Youth Cricket which he was instrumental in establishing and through dedication and commitment built a flourishing youth section and now very much part of the NSYCL. He truly embraced the aim of the league to promote and encourage youth.Nick Mehlig
Cheddar Junior Cricket Club became a big part of Nick's life. He ran several junior teams for a number of years, finishing with a successful Under-17 team in 2013. At one stage Nick was more than happy not only to run his elder son Freddie's team but also to umpire his middle son Dan's year and to support his youngest son Dominic's matches as well. Nick's enthusiasm for junior cricket (and for cricket in general) was immense. He gently encouraged other junior managers to get involved and outlined the many benefits of running a team, his clincher being that it would of course be much easier than running a junior football team. As Junior Chairman he always made you feel supported as a coach/ manager and his intelligence, experience and knowledge of the junior cricket league rules and the game in general gave the other coaches great confidence in managing a team. His organisational skills and ability to get to the point at Junior Cricket Club meetings helped make them an enjoyable experience, as did his insistence that they took place in the pub! All at Cheddar Cricket Club greatly miss that strong sense of purpose, support and friendship that Nick gave us. He left us much too early at the age of 51. Bron Purkiss11Safety: No player aged under 13 (except the wicketkeeper) may field within 11 yards of the bat, measured from the middle stump, save behind the wicket on the off side, until the batsman has played the ball. At under 15 level the distance is 8 yards. Players aged under 17 and under 16 may field closer, provided that they are not felt to be at risk, but must wear a box and helmet if within 6 yards, save behind the wicket on the off side. Should any fielder come within the distance, the umpire must stop the game immediately and instruct the fielder to move back. Safety is paramount.
Helmets: The League does not offer advice to anyone as to when or whether protective clothing should or should not prudently be worn by players and if not then on what basis. It is for Youth Organisers to source in and take their own decisions on such. The following is what is believed (but is not warranted: clubs must check) to be a summary of recent (though not necessarily current) ECB guidance in regard to such: Players should not be allowed to bat or to stand up to the stumps when keeping wicket without a helmet against a hard ball except with written parental informed consent. Coaches, teachers, managers and umpires should always ensure that a player wears a helmet if this written parental informed consent has not been received. Informed means that the parent knows the implications of what it is consenting to. Players should regard a helmet with a faceguard as a normal item of protective equipment when batting against a hard ball, together with pads, gloves and, for boys, a box. There is a British Standard (BS7928:1998) for cricket helmets and it is in the best interests of players to ensure that their helmet conforms to this standard.

Signed: Print name:
Parent/Carer (delete as applicable)Date: .
Retirements, coaching and umpires: Managers to agree policy on retirement of batsmen & coaching during play before match. A good standard of umpiring shall occur, with where resources allow the same umpire standing for both innings.
Stumps:Height:Pitch: Ball:
Under 1728 x 922 yds5.5oz
Under 1528 x 922 yds5.5oz
Under 1327 x 821 yds4.75oz
Under 1127 x 820 yds4.75oz
Age: Players over the relevant age on 1st September 2014 are not eligible to play. The officers of the League will deal with any breaches of this rule which are referred to them and are empowered to act as they deem fit in cases where over-age players are fielded, whether knowingly or otherwise. It is unfair and can be dangerous for 9 year olds, for example, to have to play against 12 year olds or for 14 year olds to have to play against 18 year olds.
ECB fast bowling match directives: Reissued 15th October 2009.
AgeMax. overs per spellMax. overs per day
Up to U135 overs per spell10 overs per day
U14, U156 overs per spell12 overs per day
U16, U177 overs per spell18 overs per day
U18, U197 overs per spell18 overs per day
For the purpose of these directives a fast bowler is defined as a bowler to whom a wicketkeeper in the same age group would in normal circumstances stand back to take the ball.
12Having completed a spell the bowler cannot bowl again, from either end, until the equivalent number of overs to the length of his spell have been bowled from the same end. A bowler can change ends without ending his current spell provided that he bowls the next over that he legally can from the other end. If this does not happen, his spell is deemed to be concluded. If play is interrupted, for any reason, for less than 40 minutes any spell in progress at the time of the interruption can be continued after the interruption up to the maximum number of overs per spell for the appropriate age group. If the spell is not continued after the interruption the bowler cannot bowl again, from either end, until the equivalent number of overs to the length of his spell before the interruption have been bowled from the same end. If the interruption is of 40 minutes or more, whether scheduled or not, the bowler can commence a new spell immediately.
Once a bowler covered by these directives has bowled in a match he cannot exceed the maximum number of overs per day for his age group even if he subsequently bowls spin. He can exceed the maximum overs per spell if bowling spin, but cannot then revert to bowling fast until an equivalent number of overs to the length of his spell have been bowled from the same end. If he bowls spin without exceeding the maximum number of overs in a spell the maximum will apply as soon as he reverts to bowling fast.
Captains, team managers and umpires are asked to ensure that these directives are followed at all times.
For guidance it is recommended that in any 7 day period a fast bowler shall not bowl more than 4 days in that period and for a maximum of 2 days in a row.
BARRINGTON - STYLE RULES AT UNDER 11 LEVEL
The laws of cricket shall apply with the following exceptions:
1. The pitch shall be 19 yards in length. 2. The ball shall weigh 4 ozs.
3. The stumps shall be 27ins. above the ground and 8ins. wide. 4. Each team shall comprise 10 players. 5. Each game shall consist of 1 innings per side. Each innings can be of 16 overs duration but when time permits may be of 20 or 24 overs.

7. Batsmen shall have unlimited lives and each life shall result in 6 runs being deducted from the total. No batsman who is out for any reason shall face the next ball. Batsmen shall change ends at the fall of each wicket except on the last ball of an over.
8. Each boy on the fielding side must bowl with the exception of the wicketkeeper.
No boy shall bowl more than 1/5th of the total overs actually bowled.
9. Each team shall commence its innings with a score of 200 runs.
10. The winning team shall be the side scoring the higher number of runs after deductions for the fall of wickets. In the event of scores being equal the 10 players from each side shall throw at the wickets from the bowlers end and the team scoring most hits shall be the winner.
11. In all matches no fielder, except the wicketkeeper, shall be allowed to field nearer than 11 yards, measured from the middle stump, except behind the wicket on the off side.
12. In the event of the umpires being satisfied that a player is incapacitated his place may be taken by a reserve who shall bat and/or bowl in his place. If no reserve is available any over due to be bowled by the injured player shall be bowled by another player without exceeding his quota. The captain of the fielding side shall choose one of the players in the first 4 pairs to bat a second time in the 5th pair.
Note:Barrington rules at U13 level provide for 8 players per side with each life costing 8 runs.
