Brockhampton Atmosphere “Some of the senior team results this year have not been what we wanted, but with schools and universities finishing for the summer, we expect to see an upturn in results. Our Junior section is doing very well having won 98% of their games this season and our U13s winning the ECB cup. Fingers crossed our U15s will do the same. Our Women’s 1st XI have won the first game in the Midlands League - Division 2 last Sunday, and it’s great to see these sectors performing well and going from strength to strength. We have a dedicated committee and many volunteers. This helps to spread the workload, bring new ideas and drive to our club so we can evolve successfully.” 2019 “Eight years ago, we developed our second ground next to the main ground, this has helped us keep the club together as our 3rd XI and 4th XI were playing five miles away, our next phase is the development of the main pavilion and we are currently working hard on fundraising for a two-bay all weather cricket net. Different activities have been planned to help us achieve our aims. These include: a Beerfest, a Summer Ball & Auction, an evening with author and journalist Brian Viner, BBQ’s, Sportsman’s evenings and much more.” Open 7 days a week Registered Cat Friendly Clinic Gold Standard Rabbit Friendly Vets Proud to be an RCVS Accredited Practice Weekdays 9am-8pm Saturday 9am-6pm Sunday 10:30am-4:30pm Find us in Pets at Home Brook Retail Park, Commercial Rd, Hereford, HR1 2BQ From general animal health treatments and welfare advice to emergency medical procedures, we offer the full range of veterinary services. 01432 366930 First Class debut for Yorkshire aged 18 and went on to play for Gloucestershire and Sussex over a 21-year playing career.
