North Warwickshire Cricket players and veterans were joined by a host of special guests in a Twenty Twenty cricket tournament at Polesworth North Warwick Cricket Club on 29 August 2010.The tournament was slightly delayed due to torrential rain, but once the blue skies appeared everybody was out onto the pitch to enjoy what turned out to be an epic cricket encounter. Three teams battled it out with some incredible performances and some howlers (Woody)!
Some of the highlights included an epic display from Stu Fairfield who limped his way to many runs. Alex 'Howz that' Burns received player of the tournament from her peers mainly for her incredible catch in the second match, but also for enduring some heavy duty banter from the entire male entourage. Mark ‘Tuna’ Banks secured a match winning four as he smashed home in the last over. He would later go on to celebrate by running a naked lap of the pitch.
As well as the cricket, fans, supporters and other guests were able to enjoy the delights of a bbq, strawberries and cream, live music and plenty of beer.
Money was raised from cricket subs, a tombola stall, a brik-a-brak stall, dj requests, the bbq and other fun and games.
The night delivered as many highlights as the days events. A naked lap from Woody and Mark raised more money for charity (I'm still struggling to believe why people actually paid to see it!), Chrissy Woods performed her usual rendition of ‘Words’, and we found out that Dan Harding was the biggest ‘tosser’ in the toss the pound coin game. Christian’s killer pool also raised some extra pounds.
We will post pictures and videos soon (including some great shots of the naked mile).
