Games on the Green livestreamed, highlights packages and player video profiles are all on the menu

Watching my leave alones on the big screen in the pavilion should almost certainly see bar-takings at least treble

Fancy seeing yourself drive imperiously through the covers? Or knock a batsman's off stump over? Well, in 2019 Twickenham CC are hoping that you'll get one step closer to doing just that.

The club is looking to invest in what is (apparently) called a PV/Match video scoring system. The details are all a little bit lost on me, but in essence the system allows us not only to video games on the Green but also to automatically tag each video to a player. Games can also be live-streamed through YouTube.

A few of you may already have seen the system in action. Hampstead CC used it in 2018 and a fair few TCC members took full advantage, watching live from our pavilion as the ones squeaked home in a thriller up in North-West London.

The club has already applied for a grant to part-fund the cost of this, but we need to match the funds raised. Eugene Berger has set up a JustGiving page to help do that. Anything you can spare would be gratefully appreciated. You can read all about what the technology can do if you follow this link. And, of course, this is where you can contribute to covering the cost.
