Welcome to the Cheam Chat Colts Edition issue 1.
Every year Peaches Close becomes our home for the summer months.  Along with the thrills and spills of exciting cricket, the club grounds provide us with comfort, safety and a sense of community.  Just as every home needs a spring clean, so does the cricket club and it’s down to US - the members - to help set the place up for the summer.  So if ever a young colt was in doubt about what it takes to keep our club spick, span, and cricket worthy for the season then get them all down to Work Force day to find out!  The more hands on deck the quicker it gets done. There will be free food and refreshments on offer and first use of the nets too! PLEASE COME ALONG ON SATURDAY AND HELP!!
HEAD COACH APPOINTMENT – BIG NEWS!  

The club is delighted to announce the appointment of Krishna Dwarka as Junior Head Coach.  Krishna returns to the club and we are excited to have a coach of Krishna’s calibre leading the colts coaching.  He is one of Surrey Performance and Surrey ladies senior coaches; his coaching sessions are innovative and exciting and, he has ambitious plans for the club with all year round programmes.  It’s not just about cricket and Krishna looks forward to devising programmes involving S&C (strengthening & conditioning), multi-sport and external visits to inspire and motivate.  Watch this space for more information. 

About returning to Cheam Krishna says, “I am very excited to be back at Cheam CC and so pleasing to see many of the boys I used to coach still involved and representing county, club and 1st XI.  I believe there is a unique opportunity to make Cheam’s Colts a premier club within Surrey and relish the opportunity to be a part of the journey”
AUTUMN & WINTER TRAINING – SUCCESS  

Before his appointment, Krishna headed up a hugely successful Autumn and Winter programme with over 30 and 60 children taking part respectively.  Great to see so many U16s and U17s involved in the course as well; and also U14s and U15s coaching the younger ones. It’s never too early to mentor and pass on knowledge and this bodes well for building our own coaching staff from within the club.  Very proud of all the boys who attended the courses and helped out with the coaching.
