Profile
Into her third season at Harborne, Claire is collecting hats like Imelda Marcos did with shoes. Having arrived as First XI scorer she became the Club's webmaster in late 1999, and Secretary a year later.

After constantly nagging players for profiles, she has again realised her own page was a bit lacking. She also doesn't know which tense she should be typing this in as she has taken to writing in the first person on the homepage.

Outside of Harborne, Claire has just completed a PGCE in Business and ICT, and has finally left full time education after seven years.

Claire has been a qualified scorer member of the Association of Cricket Umpires and Scorers for over ten years, and last year became the first female scorer member of the Midland Counties Umpires and Scorers Association, at which she appears to be representing the minority groups - the Under 30s, the women and the scorers!

Claire is also responsible for this website, so if you have any comments, please email her.

Mashonaland Under 24 (1994)
Harare Sports Club (1993/4)
Rockhampton (1993 & 1995)

Scoring Use the Bill Frindall linear scoring system - it's easier to tell more information - honest!!
