By Snelly - our man at Marshalls, Gainsborough
Matt Snee (pictured), Ian Elliott and Kevin Booth have all joined the Middlefield Lane outfit for the upcoming season, with the club hoping to improve on last season's mid-table finishes for both of its Saturday teams.
Snee - a 21-year old middle order batsman and leg-spinner - rejoins the club after starting his career at Marshalls. Since then, he has played for ECB Lincolnshire Premier League side Messingham, with a brief spell at Hull Zingari whilst at university.
Elliott joins from local rivals Lea Park, who play in the Bassetlaw League Division Two. He will replace Kevin Metcalfe behind the stumps for the club's second team, after Metcalfe announced his retirement following many years' service for the club.
Booth is a top order batsman who most recently played for Owmby.
The signings of Elliott and Booth in particular will bolster a second team which scored just 23 batting points last season - the second worst total in the division.
In an announcement on their website, the club also confirmed that they are close to a deal to bring in an overseas player this season, which is expected to be completed in the next ten days.
