4 1. Constitution Cheltenham & Gloucester League Constitution and Rules The objective of the League is to provide League Cricket in the Cheltenham, Gloucester and Tewkesbury area for teams below the Gloucestershire County Cricket League in the pyramid structure. It will encourage improvement of playing and other standards, and provide a competition for new teams in the area, provided they meet the criteria for entry. The League is called the Cheltenham & Gloucester Cricket Association League, with a sponsor s name added if required. 2. Management of the League The League is run by the CGCA who vest its administration in a Management Committee which comprises the Officers named below: League Chairman League Secretary Up to 3 other members These officers will be elected annually at the League s AGM. As far as possible the officers should be members of clubs playing in the League, and no club should be represented by more than one committee member. All Officers can apply for re-election. This Committee is a sub-committee of the CGCA committee and reports to that. The Chairman will be an ex-officio member of the CGCA committee, but he/she can be represented by another Committee member, if unavailable, at a CGCA committee meeting. The Committee may co-opt others and may create sub-committees. The Committee and its sub-committees and officers are required to manage the League according to this constitution and rules. The Committee s interpretation of these rules will be final, and the Committee is empowered to deal with any matter directly or indirectly affecting the League and covered by these rules, with the proviso that the CGCA Committee may over-rule. The League will not have a treasurer or its own bank account, or hold any monies. Instead, the one of the committee members will liaise with the CGCA Treasurer, so that money for affiliation fees, balls, fines etc. is paid to the CGCA bank, and League expenses are paid from it. The League will set an annual budget which will be presented to the CGCA Treasurer and Committee. Expenses may only be incurred if they are pre-approved in a budget or get special approval from the CGCA committee. Clubs must be efficient in their handling of League matters. The Committee may impose fines on clubs failing in this e.g. failing to respond to League correspondence when required to do so. 3. Meetings There will be an Annual General Meeting, normally to be held in October. At the AGM, each team due to be in the League the following season will have one vote. Attendance is compulsory, though clubs with more than one team in the League need only send one attendee. Though attendance is compulsory, if for any reason less than 75% of the teams due to be in the League are represented, the AGM will not be quorate and must be re-scheduled. Decision will be by a majority vote. Where playing rules apply to a single division, the rules shall be altered by a majority vote of the teams due to play in that division. Failure of a club to send a representative to an AGM will result in a fine of 25. The date of the AGM must be set and the clubs notified at least 35 days in advance. Proposals to be included in the agenda must be received by the Secretary 28 days before the AGM. The formal Calling Notice of the AGM shall be submitted to each club 21 days before the meeting date. The notice shall stipulate the venue, time, date and the agenda for the meeting. Propositions may be put forward by the Committee. Propositions coming from member clubs must have a seconder from a different club. No proposition will be allowed that is not on the published agenda. The agenda shall include:

5 Reports from the Officers of the outgoing Committee. Election of Officers Setting of affiliation fees, levels of fines etc. Provisional make-up of the League for the following season. Other propositions notified as above. The Committee may call an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) at any time. An EGM may also be called by a team in the League if that request is supported by at least 25% of the teams. If the Secretary receives such a call, the Secretary must arrange the EGM to be held within 42 days of receipt of the call. The timing of formal notice, quorum, voting rights and attendance at EGMs will be as for the AGM. 4. Member Clubs and teams. Boundaries League teams must be from clubs within Tewkesbury, Cheltenham or Gloucester local government areas. Teams from just outside these boundaries (a few miles) will also be accepted provided there is agreement with the District in which they actually lie and approval from the Senior Club & Competitions Development Group of the Gloucestershire Cricket Board. The League will not accept a team from a club that has another team in another District League in the pyramid structure. Clubs entering teams in the League must be affiliated to the CGCA, the GCB and the ECB. Clubs must hold Public Liability Insurance. Clubs will pay an entry fee per team (in addition to the CGCA affiliation fee) and will pay for balls provided by the League, at cost. 5. Entry into the League Teams relegated from the GCCL within the boundaries above are entitled to play in the League. New teams formed in the area may apply to join the league and will be accepted provided they meet the facilities criteria. 6. Facilities Criteria The facilities criteria are as set out in section 6 of the GCCL handbook. Clubs applying to join the League will not be accepted if they fail to meet the facilities criteria. Clubs already are in the League that have facilities that fail to meet the criteria will be required to correct the failure within a time specified by the Committee. Failing that, the clubs will not be allowed to play in the League. 7. Ground, Pitch and Facilities marking The visiting captain will report a mark for ground, pitch and facilities. 8. Player Registration The GCCL rules for player registration will be used. However, players under 16 may register for more than one club, with no need for transfers. Other named players may be registered to play for more than one club without transfer if the committee has agreed beforehand. 9. Divisions, Promotion and Relegation The team winning the League s top division will be expected to apply to join the GCCL. If that team, for some reason, does not take the promotion, then the runners-up may apply to the GCCL. Teams relegated from GCCL will be placed in the League s top division. 2nd XI s of teams relegated from WEPL can apply to play in the League, if that is appropriate, the division being determined by the assessed strength of the team. At least the winner and runner-up from each lower division in the League will be promoted to the division above. Sufficient relegations will take place to accommodate all the above. At the AGM the outgoing Committee will present the provisional make-up of the League for the following season, i.e. how many divisions and which teams in each.

6 10. Fixtures The League will arrange the fixtures. Clubs may, by mutual agreement, play a fixture on another day, provided the agreement is notified by both clubs to the Secretary not less than 7 days before the fixture was originally due. If a fixture is re-arranged, no one who played for any team in the club on the original date may play in the re-arranged fixture. 11. Disputes and Discipline The Committee will appoint a Disciplinary Chairman and deputy, one of whom will oversee the resolution of all disputes and disciplinary procedures. The Process will be that set out in the GCCL handbook. As for the GCCL, appeals against fixed tariff penalties will be taken at League Committee level. Otherwise, appeals will be taken at CGCA level. 12. Playing Rules, Cancellations, Points Scoring, Results Reporting, League Table Ordering The playing rules will be the same as those for the GCCL lowest division, except that there will be only one new ball per game, not one per innings. Rules about cancellations, points scoring, results reporting and league table ordering will be the same as for the GCCL lowest division. The GCCL guidance on player-umpires is to be followed, except that there is no restriction on under 18 s standing at the bowler s end. 13. Youth players Captains must abide by the ECB directives on young players. Helmets must be worn. Those in the U-12 age group or below may not play (i.e. for the 2013 season, no one born after 31 August 2000 may play). See also section 8 about relaxed player registration rules for young players. 14. Social Media etc Players and club officials shall not make any public or media comment which is detrimental to the League, Clubs, Umpires or the game in general. The media includes press, radio, television, external websites, club websites, social networking sites and club match programmes.

8 CGCA Senior Evening Competitions Standard Playing Conditions 1. Only member clubs of Cheltenham & Gloucester Cricket Association shall be eligible to participate. 2. Matches must be played on the dates specified, and if necessary on the ground named by the Competition committee. 3. A player may not play for more than one club in the competition in any one year. 4. Only bona-fide club members shall be eligible to play. No player shall be eligible who, during the current and/or the previous season, has played cricket professionally, played First-class cricket, or been contracted as a player to a First-class County Club. Only players eligible for England shall be allowed to play. 5. The home side shall provide a match ball, which must be of suitable quality as required by the Umpires, and which shall be used for both innings unless the Captains agree otherwise before the toss. The CGCA will provide match balls for the Final ties of each Competition. 6. The CGCA will nominate grounds for the Final ties. 7. Umpires shall be provided by the CGCA In the absence of the official Umpires, the Captains shall by agreement appoint emergency Umpires. Each team shall provide a Scorer. The Umpires should sign the scoresheet at the end of the match. Both teams shall pay one umpire a match fee of The result of each match must be posted on the Association's website ( by the home team by 8.00pm on the day following the game, and both teams must post full scorecards there by 12 noon on the following Sunday. Clubs will be fined if they fail to observe this notification procedure, or if they fail to fulfil a fixture or fail to notify in advance any changes to fixture arrangements. 9. In all matches, four fielders, in addition to the bowler and the wicket-keeper, must be inside a 30 yard circle from the wicket. 9a. Power Plays notwithstanding Rule 9, for the first FIVE overs of each inning only TWO fielders can be positioned outside the 30 yard circle as the bowler delivers the ball. 10. Each match shall commence by 6.15pm. The toss shall be held at 6.00pm prompt. If one side is absent at 6.00pm, that side shall concede the toss. If the start of the match is delayed after 6.15pm, the duration of the match shall be reduced by one over per side for every six minutes (or part thereof) lost. Any match played after 31 July shall commence at 5.30pm. 11. A match shall consist of 20 six ball overs per side unless: (a) A side is dismissed; (b) A side declares its innings closed; (c) The Umpires decide before the start that a match be shortened, either because the start is delayed by weather conditions, or because the prevailing and predicted conditions of weather and/or light make it unlikely that a full match will be played. No match may be shorter than 12 six ball overs per side; (d) The match has to be abandoned before completion because of adverse weather conditions. In this case the side batting second must have completed 12 overs for the match to be determined, and the side with the higher number of runs per completed over will be declared the winner. 12. The winning side in a completed match shall be the side scoring the most runs, irrespective of the number of wickets lost. In the event of the final scores being level in the preliminary league stages, the result shall be a tie. In the knockout stages, if the scores are level, the side losing the fewer number of wickets shall be the winner. Should the number of wickets also be equal, the result will be determined in turn by the comparative scores at the end of the 10th, 15th, 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th overs, the first comparison that produces a difference being decisive.

9 13. No bowler may bowl more than four overs in an innings. A six ball over must be completed in all circumstances - should a bowler be incapacitated in mid-over, another player must complete the over, and this will count towards that player's allocation. Any bowler unable to complete an over may not bowl again in the match. In a match where the start is delayed by weather conditions, the bowlers' allowance will be reduced according to the following formula: 16, 17, 18, or 19 overs per side - no change; 12, 13, 14, or 15 overs per side - maximum three overs per bowler. 14. Where a nominated player is late in arriving at the game, a substitute may field subject to approval of the opposing Captain, but cannot bowl or keep wicket. A substitute who fields for ten overs cannot be replaced, is deemed a playing member of the side, and may bat if in the side batting second. In the case of injury during a game, a substitute may field, but may not bat or bowl. 15. Any delivery that passes either side of the wicket sufficiently wide to make it virtually impossible for the striker to play a "normal cricket stroke" both from where he is standing, and from where he should normally be standing at the crease, shall be judged a "Wide". A "No-ball" shall be called if the ball passes over the head height of the striker standing upright at the crease. 16. Matches should be played on Tuesdays or Wednesdays as indicated by the CGCA. In the event of cancellation or abandonment, each team will be awarded one point. At the knockout stages, games not played on Tuesdays shall be rearranged for the Thursday immediately following. Fixtures cannot be altered in any way without the permission of the Competition Committee, and then only with adequate notice given. 17. In the Qualifying Competition groups, there shall be 2 points for a win, and 1 point for a tie or no result. In the event that two or more teams are tied on points, position in the mini-league will be determined by runs scored divided by wickets lost over the competition. 18. For a two-day Final (a) The match shall be played as a two-innings match over two evenings. The side batting first on the first night shall bat second on the second night. (b) Clubs must provide a list of 15 players before the toss for the first night. Only these players shall be eligible to play in the Final. (c) The CGCA will provide a new ball for each night of the Final. (d) If the second night is cancelled due to weather conditions, the side scoring most runs on the first night will be declared the winner; if the first night is cancelled because of the weather, a oneinnings match will be played on the designated second night; if both nights are cancelled because of the weather, the CGCA will endeavour to arrange an alternative date for the Final. (e) If either night has to be curtailed due to weather or light conditions, that night will be declared void unless the side batting second has completed ten overs. Otherwise the scores counted will be - for the side batting second, the score at the end of the last completed over; for the side batting first, the score at the equivalent stage of its innings. The decision to curtail will be entirely in the hands of the Umpires. 19. (a) The rules for the individual competitions take precedence over the standard rules, where necessary. (b) Unless provided in the CGCA rules, the Laws of Cricket in all cases apply. (c) Any matter not provided for in these rules, and any disputes arising from the rules, shall be determined by the Executive Committee of the CGCA, and its decision shall be final. 20. Players and club officials shall not make any public or media comment which is detrimental to the League, Clubs, Umpires or the game in general. The media includes press, radio, television, external websites, club websites, social networking sites and club match programmes.

12 Fixtures and Cancellations etc. Regulations for Youth Cricket 1. Under 15 fixtures will normally be on Monday evenings. Under 13 fixtures will normally be on Sunday mornings. 2. Under 11 fixtures will be scheduled for Sunday mornings. However if the home team already has a Sunday morning U-13 fixture, so there is no pitch available, the home team must organise the game on a day in the week previous to that, the home team to select which. 3. There will be no postponements for reasons other than weather or a cup game clash. If half your team is away on Scout camp or District / County duty or whatever, that is just tough, you play or concede the game. And you are encouraged to play, even if you are one or two short, rather than cancel a game. BUT... let common sense prevail, in that if BOTH managers are happy to move, by arrangement in advance, to another day within 6 days before or after the original date, that is permitted. 4. If a league game cannot be played or completed for weather or cup clash on the date scheduled, or as re-arranged above, then both teams get 1 point. 5. In some divisions, there may be some spare "rain days" available - but the CGCA organisers (not team managers) will determine which games are to be rescheduled, if any, and these will only be for reasons of weather or cup clashes. 6. Cup games, of course, must be played, and if the fixture is washed out, a re-arrangement has to be made, with the cup taking precedence over the league, though it would be preferable to avoid an existing league game. If a league game can't be played because of a re-scheduled cup game, then both teams get 1 league point. The league game is not re-scheduled (unless the league is able to use a "rain day"). Team numbers 7. For the Under 11 Taverners competition (pairs), the managers can agree to play 10-a-side rather than the normal 8-a-side. 8. There must be at least 7 in a team in a Taverners game or a T20 game. As stated above, it is emphasised that the game should go ahead even if a team is short. Results, League points and tables 9. Results must be entered on play-cricket as soon as possible after the game, by the home team. League points: 2 for a win (and when the other side concedes) 1 for tie or no result 0 for a loss (and conceding) (NB play-cricket will not allow a result to be entered until after the scheduled start time of the game. If a game is being played on an earlier date, either wait to enter the result, or contact one of the Youth organisers, who can move the fixture on play-cricket ) 10. If teams finish on the same points, then the order in the league table is determined by the result(s) between the teams. If that is inconclusive, then net run rate will be used. Balls and scorecards 11. The CGCA will issue 2 balls per team and a quantity of scorecards before the season starts. The home team is to supply the balls for each game. Age groups 12. A player s age group is determined by his or her age at midnight of 31 August of the previous year, i.e. for the 2013 season, to play in a U-11 competition the player must have been born after 31 August 2001.

13 Pitch, stumps and balls 13. The length of the pitch and sizes of stumps and bails should be as stated in the Laws of cricket for youth games, but it is recognised that clubs may not have the facilities to do this. If it is not possible to comply, then at least the following must apply for U-11 and U-13 games: Pitch length 21 yards (U-13) and at most 21 yards (U-11) 4.75 ounce ball Playing Rules T20 games 14. The normal laws of cricket apply, except: Each innings lasts at most 20 overs. No bowler may bowl more than 4 overs. A batsman must retire on reaching 50 (30 for Under 11), but may come back in if all others have batted. The team with the most runs wins. In league games, if the teams finish on the same score, the result is a tie. In cup games, if the teams finish on the same score the team with the fewest wickets down wins. If that fails to determine the winner, then the runs scored at the end of the 19 th over will decide, then wickets fallen at the end of the 19 th, etc. back, until there is a decision. Playing Rules Taverners games 15. The normal laws of cricket apply, except: Each innings lasts for 16 (or 20 if playing 10-a-side) overs. Each team has 8 (or 10) players. Every player, apart from the wicketkeeper, must bowl at least 1 and at most 3 overs. If a team wishes to switch WKs, then both players must bowl at least 1 over. The score starts at 200. Each pair of batsmen bats for 4 overs. Each wicket costs 8 runs but the batsmen stay in until their 4 overs are complete. When a wicket falls, the not-out batsman must face the next ball, even if the wicket is as a result of a run-out, batsmen changing ends if necessary to achieve this. If a team is short, playing with 7 (or 9), then one of the batsmen from an earlier pair (excluding the two with highest net score, i.e. runs hit minus wicket penalties) bats again in the last pair. Except in the last over of each innings, wides and no balls count 2 plus any runs actually taken or scored. No extra ball is bowled. In the last over of each innings, wides and no balls count 1 and extra balls must be bowled. The team with the most runs wins. If the teams finish on the same score, the result is a tie. Coaching during play 16. There must be no coaching, field placing etc by managers / coaches / umpires during play in Under 15 games, but coaching, guidance may be given at drinks intervals and between innings. For the younger ages guidance may be given, provided it does not impede the progress of the game. Helmets etc. 17. At all times ECB Directives and Guidelines on: Code of Conduct Fast Bowling Directives Fielding Regulations Helmets MUST BE OBSERVED
