Hi there, I wonder if you could share this link [below] with your membership please, everyone over here is looking forwards to welcoming Notts back to Cleethorpes and are hoping it maybe the beginning of some more competitive fixtures as we staged for the county nearly 30 years ago, be great to see a good contingent come across to our much respected ground, many thanks in anticipation

Lincolnshire CCC will again be hosting a one-off showcase game against our professional neighbours, Nottinghamshire CCC. This year’s game will be staged at Cleethorpes Cricket Club's Chichester Road ground. The game serves as a fantastic opportunity for our players to showcase their skills against professional players and for Nottinghamshire, it provides a great opportunity to fine tune their 50 overs skills ahead of the Metro Bank, One Day Competition.
Nottinghamshire are expected to field a strong side as this game represents one of the few opportunities for players to push their case for selection ahead of the One Day campaign, last year’s game featured the likes of former England man Haseeb Hameed and England Lion, Dillon Pennington.
Lincolnshire will be looking for a repeat performance of last year which saw Lincolnshire successfully chase down Nottinghamshire plus 300 first innings total and Tom Keast’s men will be looking for another strong showing against a First Class County.
This years game also sees the return of professional cricket to Chichester Road, home to Cleethorpes CC. Cleethorpes have staged a number of first class and List A games in the past and there are few better grounds in the county to host such an occasion.
We hope you can join us by the seaside for this one off 50 over game.
Play starts at 11am on Monday the 14th July, entry is £5 for adults (payable on entry, cash or card) and free for under 16’s.
Lincolnshire CCC members also gain free entry on the day.
Food and drink will be available to purchase on the day and the ground is situated a short walk from the promenade.
Perhaps this might be the mostly Sunday league, 3 Sundays, 2 Wednesdays a Thursday, a Friday and a Tuesday

Underwhelmed, not being unkind, and not a Notts home match, but isn't Kibworth a village ?
ReplyDeleteWelbeck's Fretwell Centre isn't even in a village
DeletePlayed for Boots v Cleerhorpes there, run out for 8. Every cloud has silver lining 2 long standing ex members, who now find it difficult to travel to Nottingham from that area, will be able to get to that match.
