Eversholt vs. Lashings World XI benefits Disability Cricket
Posted by on 10 November 2017
Eversholt Cricket Club hosted the world-famous Lashings World XI for the sixth time back in August. The match helped to raise precious funds for our Club and a generous donation of £1,500 was made to Cricket East’s Bedfordshire Disability Programme.
The Club’s Chairman Dave Garratt said: “Thank you to everyone involved for helping make the Lashings event another great success this year. We were worried that the unsettled weather and the fact that this is the sixth time we have staged the event might play against us but our concerns proved mostly unfounded. The funds we raised will go directly towards paying for our new net facilities and we look forward to hearing how our donation is invested in your continued good work.”
