Cricket Centenary Tournament

Date: Sunday 18th September 2011
Time: 09.00 to 19.00
Venue: Bessborough CC, Headstone Manor

What could be nicer – a lovely summer’s day, the sound of leather on willow, a deckchair (please bring your own), a glass or two of Pimm’s or beer, getting misty-eyed over some cricketing souvenirs of yesteryear and to meet up with old chums you haven't seen for years. It really doesn't get much better than that. All you have to do is turn up; the sun will shine, we promise!

The tournament is being hosted by Bessborough and West Harrow Cricket Clubs from 09.00 to 19.00. Teams taking part are Alliance, Bessborough, West Harrow, Lahona, Middlesex Tamil, Kingsbury, Harrow St Mary’s, Eastcote and Harrow Town Cricket Clubs. There will also be a ladies match with the Alan Dutch XI. We anticipate visits by a celebrity line-up of old boys perhaps including Mark Ramprakash and Angus Fraser.

Both of the host clubs have their own club houses with reasonably priced bar. The School plans to have a BBQ offering a variety of traditional food at reasonable prices.

The day should provide a feast of cricket and lots of fun to celebrate the School’s centenary. The address is Bessborough Cricket Club Headstone Manor, Pinner View, Harrow, HA2 6PX, tel: 020 8427 3694, nearest tube: North Harrow station.
