Halifax Cricket League Dinner

Posted by Peter Davies

The Halifax Cricket League Dinner was staged at Bower's Mill, Barkisland on 28 November. It was a great event with c.250 guests and the cricket speaker was Bill Frindall. The food was very nice (vegetable soup, beef and veg, toffee dessert) and the whole event summed up how strong the league is. I got chatting with Keith Hudson (Bridgeholme), Steve Williams (Blackley) and a number of people on the top table. On behalf of the project, I presented the 2008 History & Heritage Award to Augustinians CC for their March 2008 reunion event. There was lots of chat in the car park as people nipped outside for a cigarette or a spot of fresh air in between courses. In fact, it was a mild evening - very unusual!
