A fresh attempt to ban overseas players from cricket’s Marston’s Shropshire Premier League has been launched.

Allscott, who won the Chronicle Cup in 2009, have tabled the proposal which will be voted on at a League meeting at the end of November.

The cause has previously been championed by Albrighton, who have tried on three previous occasions to trigger a new rule banning overseas players.

Clubs voted 8-6 last year in favour of maintaining the status quo and allowing overseas players to remain.

Several top overseas stars have turned out in the Premier League over the years, with West Indian Test players Jimmy Adams and Tino Best among the most eye-catching.

Adams helped Wroxeter win the title in 2001, while pace bowler Best turned out for Madeley.

The leading overseas performer in 2010 was Newport’s Aditya Jain who scored 1,469 runs and took 53 wickets.

But a number of clubs have elected to operate without an overseas professional over the last two seasons due to the economic climate.

Meanwhile, FBC Manby Bowdler League champions Worfield have been unanimously accepted into the Marston’s League after passing their ground grading inspection.

Bottom club Trysull & Seisdon have been relegated, meaning the league will again operate with 14 clubs in 2011.

But there remains medium-term plans to reduce the league to its traditional number of 12.

Two other intriguing rule changes will also be considered at the annual meeting in January.

Proposals have been received to limit the number of overs each bowler is permitted in matches to 10, while there has been another suggestion to eliminate draws and have a straight win-loss scenario.

But league officials plan to checks if that is allowed under ECB directives.
