Welcome to Wizzy News for this week – our weekly roundup of news and events at Wisborough Green Cricket Club.
Friday evening training
Parking
Just a quick reminder to park away from the village playground, Wyatt Close and Butts Meadow . Car parking spaces are available at the Village Hall car park where there are 10 spaces and Songhurst Meadow car park where there are 14 spaces.
If it is possible to walk or share lifts to the Green then please do.
BBQ
Our regular BBQ team aren’t able to run the BBQ on Friday evening – if you are able to help in any way please get in touch
Presidents Day – This Sunday
Following on from last year’s Presidents Day, that seemed to be a party Club Day – the next Presidents Day is next Sunday. Please also advise if you and your family can attend.
Presidents Day is all about a celebration of cricket for all players, junior coaches, helpers and families involved with Wisborough Green Cricket Club.
The day will start at:
• 12:00 for drinks followed by a lunch at 1pm.
• A 30 over Cricket match – Presidents Team V Chairmans Team this will start at 2pm.
• A Few competitions will take place during the day:
o There is a guess the ‘number of boundaries’ competition £5 per entry. For clarity a Boundary is a 4 or 6.
o The raffle prize will be a Day out at Lords with the President and Chairman.
Lunch at Soutine a French Restaurant in St Johns wood. Then T20 match tickets to Middlesex v Surrey, with Pavillion pass to watch from the iconic Lords Pavillion.
o There will also be an opportunity to take a ticket in the Double Century Club draw.
As always, please wear a Club tie for arrival and lunch – once the lunch has finished and the match has started, please feel free to change into anything you would like to – shorts and flip flops are very acceptable. I am once again hoping this day will be a real party for you and your families, and a celebration of all the great things about cricket at Wisborough Green.
