2017 Fixture Booklets on Press

Whilst it is always with good intentions year in and year out to ensure the BCC Sporting Fixtures booklet is ready for circulation at the start of the season we are still waiting for them to come off press. So for those who are anxious to get their diaries organised ahead of the league matches which kick off from Saturday 6th May, please feel free to download a copy of the fixtures until the printed booklets are ready for distribution.

We must all be mindful that the printing of these booklets, on average 74 pages in full colour, is sponsored by FOX Print Services year in and year out.

August Bank Holiday Cricket Fiesta

August Bank Holiday Cricket Fiesta

A weekend fiesta of cricket with all three teams winning their league matches on Saturday. Followed by a very successful Big Bash Interclub six-a-side on Sunday and finally, the weekend was complete with BCC being crowned champions of The Groombridge 6’s on bank holiday Monday.

The Interclub six-a-side was filled with plenty of entertainment both on and off the pitch. The Super Mario’s took dressing up for cricket to another level, the South Africans tactically recruited the pony ‘Daisy’ as as a distraction, supercharged Dylan Hillhouse could be compared to the “bolt” between the wickets, Elliot Heim behind the mic was not a good idea and team Howard arrived on mass with as many friends and family to fill the top bank and intimidate the opposition. Well done to team Baldock who seemed unphased by all the goings on finally triumphing overall.

Well done to our BCC Six A side team on winning the Groombridge 6’s on the bank holiday Monday. They say the ‘cream always rises to the top’, so yes, Bidborough should have ‘probably’ won and were ‘probably’ the best team on the day.

 


 

The BIG Bash Interclub Six-a-Side Tournament

Sunday 28th August, is the BIG Bash Interclub Six-a-Side Tournament. After last years huge success of the ‘Bidborough Big Bash’ we will be running this again. For those of you not in the know, it’s an interclub six-a-side tournament. We look to involve seniors and colts. However due to the fast pace and nature of the game we recommend that its only suitable for Under 15’s out of the colts setup.

Organising the day takes some time and work, so we would be grateful if you are interested in playing to please let Chris Wallington know ASAP (click here to email Chris).

There will also be a cash Bar and BBQ running all day with music and other entertainment.
