Volunteer of the month award nominees sought
There’s just a few more days left to nominate for the Shropshire Volunteer of the Month for June.
We know there are many worth nominees out there from clubs in Shropshire, so fill in the form below and we will see they get the recognition they deserve.
Nominations for the June award need to be submitted by close of play this Friday.
Lead Officer Steve Reese said: “There are some incredible volunteers out there who work hard to ensure clubs across the county promote the game and ensure people of all ages can play in a safe and friendly environment.
“We want to highlight the significant contributions of these people – without whom the recreational game would struggle to function as effectively as it does.
“They might be involved in maintain the grounds, safeguarding, becoming a new coach or upskilling to support junior sections, organising social events, fund raising, cleaning the venue, ensuring administration duties are compliant etc, with most wearing more than one hat.
“It is all vital work that needs to be done and should be recognised. Let us know about these people and each month we will highlight their efforts.”
Each month through the season, the winners will be chosen by Directors of Cricket Shropshire and will receive a framed certificate.
