Six and out
By Will 1 month ago, 5 Comments »
The health and safety facists have done it again. A cricket club in Harrogate has banned players from boshing sixes and, if they do, they are automatically out of the game.
“Most of the neighbours are very supportive of the club, but we have the odd person who complains,” he said. Mr Rawlings maintains that not many of their balls make it into the residential areas.
He said: “Most of them just throw the balls straight back, but some of the residents, the ones who have concerns, keep them. We hope the new nets will solve the problem.” The pitch is used by the club’s third and fourth teams and by junior teams but is not suitable for national competitions.
More on this exquisitely anal piece of bureaucratic bullshit can be read at the Sunday Times.
