If you score in Staffordshire, please complete our short survey at https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/WHNCRNP unless you have done so already.  We will then keep you up to date with details of various other resources, including FREE membership of ECB ACO.

ECB ACO is always looking for enthusiastic scorers, of all ages, who would like to learn more and progress their career to scoring regional and national fixtures.

NB: ECB would like all scorers to hold a DBS Certificate as they may be alone with a child in a scorebox for several hours.  Please check with your Club’s Welfare Officer.

If you have any other questions please email colinp@a-b.co.uk.
