Amongst the changes that have been made to the Cricekt Leinster website this year, many may not have noticed the introduction of a new heading 'Articles' which can be accessed through the Archives button on the Home Page.
Irish and Leinster cricekt has a rich history and over the years many people have written about it in the their club annuals, in the news media and as part of match brochures. We are hoping to collect as many articles as possible about different aspects of the sport and store them on the website. Anyone that wishes to contribute an article about a club, player, team or just of general historical interest please send it in.
It is early days but so far we have started a series on 'Teams of the Century' and there are articles on cricket in the 1860s, the early years of the CYM club and the Durrow Club records [1840s]. Over time it is hoped that this will beceome a rich trove of articles of interest to general readers [on wet days], researchers and club historians.
So if you have anything to contribute please send the articles in.
