Never trust a man that doesn't shower after sport.

Never sit next to a man that doesn't shower after sport and certainly don't take them home after the game in your car.

With all that kit, I doubt you've got room to give anyone a lift home.

This should be printed on every fixture card in the country.

To be honest, as a 'youngster', I find the showers to be a jarring experience, to the extent that I don't shower at the club.

I just don't get it, at all. It seems infantile and very odd; the fact that as a 13-14 year old playing adult cricket that there were 50-60 year olds wandering around naked doesn't seem especially appropriate to be honest.

Maybe I just don't appreciate banter. ;)

Interesting comments from people although I agree with comments re the ECB!

The rules now are so tight regarding youth players, did you know that U18 should now have their own changing rooms and that if minors do go into the changing rooms everybody should hand their phones into a designated child welfare officer.

With the amount of kit you buy Chris you should be driving an 18 wheeler 😉

It was inevitable that size would come up. What with it being a showers thread...

Most clubs in my area actually encourage the youngsters to turn up already in their whites

Is this true?

We now have signs around our changing rooms at most clubs in the league saying 'no mobile phones in changing rooms'.  In addition youngsters are meant to have an opportunity to get changed and out before men go in but I don't think this is adhered to at many places.  We have the additional matter of women playing in our mens side which as you can imagine complicates things even further!
