This is the fourth newsletter - including an article by Charles Buck.
It would seem that the euphoria which overtakes all the players in a cricketrnteam when a wicket falls is a contagion from the absurd scenes in a soccerrnmatch after a goal has been scored.
Worse than this, however, on the cricket scene is the euphoria which occursrnbefore the umpire has given his verdict. This is now so prevalent, and is suchrnan irritation to umpires that it can have an affect on the verdict. I believernthat the days of 'persuading' an umpire are over and that any concerted attemptrnto do so becomes counter productive.

This was the third newsletter of 1993
A gentle reminder: the AGM, Dinner and prize giving will take place at AbbeydalernPark Thursday 2 December 1993. The secretary has sent out the usual formalrnnotification. Please make a note in your diary for what promises to be a mostrnenjoyable event.

I think Sheffield Collegiate was the first cricket club in the world
to have a WWW presence, unless anyone out there can beat Summer 1993. For the record, this is the text of the very first cricket web page, published in September 1993.
Welcome to the Sheffield Collegiate Cricket Club home page. While
Sheffield Collegiate is not connected with the University of Sheffield,
and only indirectly with the Chemistry Department, you can select here for the University of Sheffield home page or here for the Chemistry Department.

This is the first edition, hopefully of many, of the Sheffield Collegiate Cricket Club newsletter. The newsletter will be distributed free of charge to members of the 200 Club and patron members. The aim is very simple, and that is to tell you what is happening at Collegiate.
