VENTURERS CRICKET CLUB: 2003 FIXTURES AND RESULTS

The Venturers Cricket Club results archive
Below is the fixture list for the 2003 season, with home matches displayed in
Green, and away matches
displayed in Blue.
Given the problem experienced in the previous year of raising a team for Sunday matches,
for the 2003 season the Venturers decided to experiment by co-ordinating their
schedule with that of the
Civil Service Team which also plays at the Sulis Ground. To
this end,
it was agreed that on some weekends either the Venturers or the Civil service would not
schedule a match but would instead make their players available to the other side in the
hope that both teams would find it easier to raise a team on those occasions.
All matches involving the Civil Service in some capacity have been marked in
Red.
