Hi everyone this is a little off topic and if the admin think it doesnt belong then please feel free to delete it.
I run my cricket club along with the club committee, as you are probably aware cricket is quite an expensive sport to play so like every club we are always looking for different avenues for funding.
This year we have increased our fees, had 2 fundraiser and are planing a third as well as recieved money from gaming community trusts. So i would say we are quite pro-active in gainging funds to help our 3 teams get on the field,(so far it has cost us nearly $13,000 in ground fees, balls, equipment etc).
The National bank is giving away over $100,000 in grants to clubs, schools etc and we are hoping to get a slice of that to help with new uniforms next year, while the number of votes only counts someway to being approved a grant every little bit helps and it only takes a few seconds.
