Mayor's Charity Cricket Match - Sunday 15th August 2010

Monk Bretton Cricket Club hosted the Mayor's Charity Cricket Match on Sunday 15th August 2010 at Monk Bretton Cricket Club, Cross Street, Monk Bretton .

A Mayor's Select 11 played a Leader's Select 11 in a 20/20 over match.

At the conclusion of the match the club ran a team quiz.

The proceeds of the match went to BIADS - Howzat! .

We had a beautiful day for the Mayor's charity cricket match with sunshine all the way. We fundraised by having another balloon race (soon we will be known throughout the land).

The cricket was very relaxing to watch and reminded us of long ago summers from our youth, picnics in the park and the sound of leather upon willow as the silly mid off does whatever it is that silly mid offs do!

Around £500 was raised for BIADS through a ballon race and the Mayor's charity.
