What do you think should be changed for next season in DCB Junior League?
 

Last season the Durham Cricket Board insisted that whoever was wicket keeper could not bowl as they were trying to get more full time wicket keepers, for me it meant smaller clubs struggled as generally there wacky was also one of the best bowlers/ fielders!!

For me it was very negative as others never got a chance to keep wicket. at our club it certainly made the team weaker, this rule makes the bigger clubs with large squads even stronger and the smaller teams struggle fact!!!
 
Heard a rumor Under 18s cricket is going to be changed to Under 17 next season ? Anyone know anything about this?

Explain that to me? Seems very sensible move by the DCB. Cant understand why you would object to it.[DOUBLEPOST=1389479166][/DOUBLEPOST]

Heard that the NTSCL are thinking of introducing a new junior competition for the school holidays. Similar to the NEPL junior tournament one ground will host 3 teams or so and play round robin with the winners going forward to the semi finals. Anyone heard this?
