Howzat! - we hope


Thriplow Cricket Club have made a bid to Scambs for funding to install two astro-turf practice nets. I'm very happy to support the bid as they have gone for matched funding from sources such as the Lords Taverners and have the backing of the ECB. After last season's disappointing conclusions, after a good start earlier on, I think Chris Neild and his team need some support.

As with the tennis courts that were relaid at Whittlesford with matched funding, in part from South Cambs, and which I supported last year, this all helps to provide sporting amenities in our villages, rather than people having to traipse over to Royston or into Cambridge for a bit of exercise - especially good for children who can't always rely on parental or public transport.
