What a fantastic way to prepare for the school season. The Sporta pre-season cricket festival for schools is now the largest of its kind in the UK.

We’re hosting U14 – U18 squads from 25 schools this year who are travelling from Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Derbyshire, Essex, London, Wiltshire & Worcestershire.

They enjoyed fantastic conditions across several grounds, and were supported by our outstanding festival director, Rob Ferley, and Megan Brickell. A thank you also to the outstanding umpires who make such a contribution to the players’ rounded experience here in Eastbourne. Until next year …
