15th April
You may be aware there has been some confusion over whether spectators are allowed to attend cricket games. The League, following consultation with the ECB, have contacted all clubs and advised spectators are NOT allowed to attend games until 17 May. This includes watching games from your own car.
You are permitted to attend & enjoy hospitality facilities but you must be sat at a table at all times (other than going to the toilet), remain socially distant and purchase food or drink. Table service must be provided.
Please see the link below which contains the letter we have received from David Young, Chairman of the Gordon Rigg Bradford Premier League.

The Bradford League held their AGM recently and a number of new rules have been introduced. The main rule change is that all games will start at 12.30 and not 1pm as it was previously. All the rule changes and the COVID-19 road map can be viewed here.
Although we are waiting for ECB and Government confirmation, we anticipate starting the season on the 17th April.

26th October
It is with great sadness, the club has to announce the passing of former Chairman, Life Member and club stalwart David Wharf after a long illness.
The Club and its members owe so much to David who was a tireless worker for Woodlands Cricket Club for many decades and under his leadership the club grew from what was an archetypal local village cricket club into one of the leading clubs in Yorkshire with facilities to match.
David was Chairman of the Club for 34 years only recently standing down to become Chairman Emeritus. For many years David ran the junior section and ferried countless numbers of youngsters to games in his van and for over 30 years spent endless hours as groundsman in addition to his other many roles within the club.
Our love and thoughts are with Jennifer and the rest of the family at this sad time.
Funeral arrangement to be announced.
Rest In Peace David
WCC
