New Nets for Malvern Cricket Club
Malvern, England, United Kingdom
Aim
Raise 20k to help fund the new nets we desperately require for next season.
Malvern CC is a community based club in the heart of town and has a growing membership mainly from the local area (3 adult teams and 80 juniors along with a blossoming All Stars and Girls team). We have a history going back over 50 years.
Why we need help?
This was the year we had intended as our final push towards raising enough money for our new nets. Our old ones are in a desperate state (they are over 30 years old) and we really need to offer the players adequate facilities in which to improve their cricket.
We need your help in raising money for new nets for all the local players. we have the plans and are ready to go for next season so it is very exciting, but we are relying on friends from the local and extended community to help us!
Our local Community involvement
Our clubhouse and grounds are used extensively by the local Malvern Community. Events include:
- Wedding receptions
- Charity events
- Quiz Nights
- Crib Night
- Parties (all sorts!)
- Christenings
- Youth Cricket tournaments
Last year's highlights were a charity Rounders tournament raising £1109.23 for the Epilepsy Society.
The world cup day also provided thrills and spills for a busy clubhouse... a day for the youngsters never to forget!
Malvern CC also provides a free Firework night each November which is always very well attended as well as a popular fete day every Summer.
This year we have managed to provide some cricket for the juniors, culminating in us hosting a tournament on 13th September...
But we regret having to cancel events booked in the clubhouse and let's all hope by next season we are back normality and can provide new nets to all our fantastic players and new kids coming in from the area.
Thank-you for your support!
