The sun shone and the barbie sizzled while visitors to Bredon Cricket Club lapped up a fabulous family fun day at the weekend.

A large number turned out to the new-format season curtain-raiser, which replaced the traditional cheese-and-wine evening for the first time this year.

Members and guests were treated to live music from the Kings of the Hill while they enjoyed the spring sunshine and glorious setting of our ground at Hill Close.

The barbecue and ice creams sold out, and there were some concerned faces at the bar as the drinks were downed at a ferocious rate, threatening to leave the cellar empty!

Children enjoyed a bouncy castle and playing on the club’s tenderly cared-for outfield.

Club chairman Neil Hall said he was delighted by the turnout.

“We thought we’d try something different this year, and it has been amazing.

“Along with the tower run (May 27) and Bredon Hill Bash (weekends in August) it is going to become one of our key regular events of the year.”
