Cricket Scotland is working towards greater equality in participation in cricket in Scotland. To that end they have produced equality surveys for adults and under 18s that they would like as many people connected to cricket to complete. I completed it this morning and it took less than five minutes. Your help would be much appreciated.
It has now been confirmed that Ferguslie CC has also been awarded a grant of £10,000 from Grant Scotland for the COVID-19 crisis. Good news and hopefully there will be more to come!
A quick update to inform you that Dumfries Sports Club, consisting of five sports, has received a COVID-19 grant of £25,000 from Grants Scotland. Good news indeed.

I am pleased to inform you all that Prestwick CC has managed to obtain a grant of £10,000 from this source. This is the first success I have heard of and would encourage all clubs to make an application. Information on how to apply has been sent to all clubs.
If you do and are successful please let me know and I will share the news.
