Following a brilliant day yesterday celebrating 100 years of Whitchurch CC playing at Parsonage Meadow, the Chairman of the club was keen to share the following.
“ I’d just like to say a huge thanks to everyone for yesterday. We had a fantastic day of cricket down at the Meadow to mark the 100 year return to the ground.
Thanks to all involved; the players and their coaches, the grounds team, those working in the background to make it happen. I’d like to thank the Mayor for coming down to do the Clive Osman building dedication and marking the day, and it was nice to see a few Vice Presidents of the club there as well.
I also want to thank Dan and Helen Nailor for giving up their Sunday to run the BBQ keeping us all fed, and to Alex Foxbatt for putting in a 12 hour shift running the bar (and somehow managing to make rocky road at the same time).
And a final thank you to the supporters who all came down to enjoy the day. Between us all we have generated another £800 after costs to invest back in to the club. Here’s to the next 100 years of cricket at Whitchurch Cricket Club“.
