Pre-Match Thread 5th Friends of Katie Cricket Match 8th July 2pm

[Hawkwell Blue]

Hi,

Just to let fellow zoners know that our 5th Friends of Katie cricket match is being held at Little Baddow Cricket Club on Sunday 8th July at 2pm. The game, in aid of my late daughter, is in aid of Little Havens Childrens Hospice who looked after her so well. We have raised over £50,000 in her name for the hospice.

All are welcome as always and apart from the game we'll have an auction, refreshments including licensed bar, Rossi (Southend) ice cream, a pampering tent, face painting plus loads more all in beautiful surroundings. Let's hope summer arrives by then!

There will be a number of Blues' fans in my team and a couple in the opposition. Check out our website for details www.friendsofkatie.co.uk.

As you know SZ have been great to us since Katie died for which we are grateful and thanks to Kent Shrimper are due this time around.

All the best,

Nick.

Southall, in a white keeper's jersey, would make a good sight-screen.

Just to let you know that the weather put paid to there being any cricket yesterday at our annual fundraising event. However, we still managed to raise over £1,700 though which was great. The postponing of the cricket meant we were not treated to the cricketing skills of one match wonder 'keeper Barrie Delf. The story behind his one match appearance, beat Sheff Utd 3-1 at home in 1983, Steve Phillips hat trick, was brilliant and it was great to chat about life at Roots Hall in the early 1980s.
