Following the great success of the OV/KSW vs. Lord’s Taverners cricket match in the summer, we’re holding it again but this time it will be even bigger and better!
In 2025, there will not only be an OV/KSW men’s team fielded against the Lord’s Taverners at Slingpool Walk, but an OV/KSW all-women’s team, and a children’s game as well – three matches for the price of one and something for everyone!
The focus of the day, aside from Cricket, will be to raise funds for both the Lord’s Taverners and the King’s School’s Peter Iddon Bursary with games, raffles and food stalls.
When: Sunday 6 July 2025 (the day after VigFest so you can make a weekend of it!)
What time: anticipated 1200 first bowl for the adults, slightly later for the children, but TBC
Where: Slingpool Walk
There is no need to book (and there is no charge to attend), just bring your family, your friends, your picnic, and your wallet, for a wonderful Festival of Cricket and fundraising! More details will follow in due course, so keep checking back.
