First Walking Cricket Association event in the UK “played in fantastic spirit”

Thursday saw our first Walking Cricket Association event in the UK — the North Indoor Tournament at The Cricket Asylum in Sowerby Bridge!

Four teams joined us: Westquarter Wanderers from Scotland, Sandbach from Cheshire, Southport from Lancashire and hosts The Cricket Asylum from Yorkshire.

Much fun was had by everyone, and the tournament was played in fantastic spirit. Our Scottish visitors thrilled those watching by scoring their only two runs off the last ball of their innings! We suspect that lowest-score record could last for many years.

First Walking Cricket Association event. TCA won all three group games, Sandbach won two and Southport one, setting up a final between TCA and Sandbach. Sandbach batted first and scored a very competitive 74. TCA then blocked out the final over, finishing on 81 to win by seven runs. Congratulations to The Cricket Asylum, and a big thank you to all four teams for a thoroughly enjoyable day!
