A note to make you aware of some forthcoming events at
Banbury Cricket Club:
National Knock-Out Semi-Final – This Sunday 1pm
Banbury face High Wycombe on Sunday in the regional semi-final
of the Kingfisher Beer National Club Championship. History points to a lively
day at White Post Road, there will be a BBQ and the bar opens at 12. The
Willows are kindly offering 4 pints of Strongbow, Carlsberg or Speckled Hen
Smooth for £10 until the first wicket.
Banbury Cricket Club v Banbury Rugby Club – Jubilee
Sports Special for the Barrie Nichols Trophy – Bank Hol. Monday 4th
June
Barrie Nichols was a great friend and supporter of sport in
the town. Since his passing, his two favourite clubs have competed for a trophy
named in his honour 3 times. The cricket club have triumphed twice (at Cricket
and Skittles), but the Rugby Club are the current holders after winning the
golf.
This coming bank holiday Monday, we go head to head again as
two new sports are added to the trophy’s already varied history. Three sports
in all will be played on the day as we match up on:
1. Touch
Rugby
2. Tug-‘o’-war
3. Cricket
Please contact me and pledge your support to Barrie and the
club by making yourself available to compete on the day. You can opt to take
part in one, two or all of the activities and we are also in need of drinkers
and BBQ eaters.
Hope to see you soon,
Jimmy
