After a long quest and some last minute problems, the order has finally been submitted for the pink grips. We have now ordered more than we needed to take advantage of a fantastic bulk order deal. In fact, the deal is so good we actually get more grips for less money.

It means that all those who requested grips will receive them at a lesser price than expected, and it also means we have spares for those players who decide to get their own bat and will require one in the future. The bulk order has also created an opportunity for our procurement officer who may be able to make some money for the club on Ebay, as identical grips are going for vastly inflated prices.

We have been informed from the supplier that the grips will arrive towards the end of next week. A further article will be posted on the website to confirm their arrival.

Payment is now due for those that ordered at £3.50 per grip. If anyone requires extra grips or forgot to order first time around, please let Jim know before Pits flogs the surplus stock.

Further exciting news will be announced soon regarding “must have” additional bat accessories.
