THE Fossils veterans cricket team are preparing to embark on their 24th season.
The campaign will involve 41 fixtures in midweek and on Sundays as well as a July tour to Wales with four more games.
Founder John Reynolds is taking a back seat after 23 years in charge.
Brian Norfolk and Paul Thompson will run the midweek side and Peter Tudge and Martin Woodward the Sunday team.
More than 40 players and friends attended a pre-season brunch in Malvern.
Fossils welcome new members and anyone interested can call John on 01905 427007.
They will again support Acorns Children's Hospice.
