All these players should have been contacted personally by now to inform them and their parents of what is required and the dates of the various sessions. The EPP Players for 2012 are:- Joshua Bohannon; Harry Dearden; Ashley Gowers; Samuel Kershaw; Daniel Lamb; Callum Parkinson; Calum Turner; Mark Waddington and Luke Williams. Bhumika Doshi; Alex Hartley; Emma Lamb; Haley Martinus; Sophie McArdle and Nalisha Patel. A number of players have also been moved within Levels 1 and 2. Again these players should have been informed personally of what has happened. In the past we have sent out letters to all players on the scheme. To help reduce overall costs we have decided to speak personally to any player who has been moved up or down the Levels. If you have not been contacted by Steve Titchard then your Levels position will have remained unchanged. After the holiday break we intend to publish a list all the players who are on Level 2 or above. The various Age Group Squad Coaching Sessions begin in earnest in the New Year. Everyone who represented Lancashire last season within the 11 to 15 age groups should have been given an indication when their sessions are due to take place. This will normally involve the various Team Managers and / or Coaches. If there are any doubts please check the list elsewhere on this website. Any problems please contact either Steve Titchard or John Heaton.
