CRICKET CLUB
Largo CC is based on East Drive in Fife and
their first team currently competes in the East of
Scotland Cricket Association League Division
2. They are led by President Howard Coates
who is supported by Treasurer Ian Brown
and the club is looking to progress
under their guidance.
So far this season they have made a solid start to their
league campaign, having compiled a record of four wins
and five defeats from their nine matches. This sees them
sitting in a safe midtable position with 108 points on the
board.
This should provide them with a steady platform as
they look to build for the future. As long as they are able
to retain their current group of players and can perhaps
make one or two quality additions they should be in
with a good chance of pushing on up the table.
Largo CC is not a club to focus solely upon their
senior section and this is reflected by the fact that they
also have a number of youth sides running. These
teams look to provide young players from the local
community with an opportunity to play the game in a
safe and enjoyable environment whilst helping them to
reach their full potential.
It is important for any club looking to be successful
over a sustained period of time to be able to produce
their own talent, particularly in the current financial
climate and this is an area they appear to have covered.
It will certainly be exciting to see how their youngsters
can progress in the coming years.
In order to help make sure that they enjoy a smooth
transition into the senior game they also run a second
XI. This allows them to gain experience of adult level
cricket even if they are not yet considered ready for
first team action which can be an important step in the
development process.
Another benefit of running an extra side is that it
allows the first XI to benefit from far greater strength
in depth. If they are ever left short on numbers through
injury or work commitments they have the option
of calling up replacements with a limited amount of
disruption.
There is much to admire about the fine set up that
Largo CC currently has in place and if they continue in
the same manner they should be able to look forwards
to a bright and successful future for many years to come.
