Barnards Green Cricket Club recently celebrated 75 years of providing cricket to everyone. "The Green" could not have achieved the recognition they have as one of the premiere clubs in the Midlands area without the tireless efforts of a string of volunteers who remain largely anonymous. Every club needs members who quietly get on with the job of making sure that when the players turn up on Saturday afternoon they don't have to worry about the little details that make playing at The Green a pleasure. The Green recognise the efforts of those people who "quietly get on with it". You know who you are. Thanks to you all.

Indoor senior nets will again take place at Malvern College and will run on Wednesday nights:-

16th & 23 February. 9th, 16th, 23rd & 30th March. The cost is £5.00 for each session payable on the night!

Huge thanks to everyone involved with the live music night at The Green, including

the performers, organisers and not least the staff. The event was a tremendous success

and already there are calls for an early repeat. Thanks also to everyone who bought tickets and

gave your support. If you were unlucky enough not to get a ticket then make sure

Please note that there are no tickets available for the live music night at The Green.

The organisers of this live music event have asked us to stress that entry to this event

is by advance ticket only. If you do not have a ticket then you will not be able to pay on the night.

Entry to and from the event will be strictly controlled so please do not turn up without a ticket!

The organisers have an agreement with Priors Croft whereby anyone having purchased a ticket and

attended the "Battle" can enjoy free entry on the 5th February to Priors Croft after the event is over.

Due to the not very nice weather over the Christmas period the Prize Raffle Draw

at The Green was postponed. The draw will now take place on Sunday 30th January.

Entrance to this event is by Advance Ticket Only as numbers are strictly limited.

Entry on the night will not be possible if, as is anticpated, all advance tickets are sold.

Five bands are confirmed and excitingly the two solo artists we have been trying to secure

This is your chance to see and hear some of the best, (and possibly the worst ),

Admission to the event on the 5th February is by ticket only and as numbers are strictly limited

you need to act now to secure your place at the event. Tickets can be obtained from The Green

Local legends will be appearing as well as some more widely known artists performing

both solo sets and as part of a band with proceeds going to club funds and other worthy causes.

Whilst we are not able, ( for contractual reasons), to reveal the identity of all of the acts involved

you can be sure that at least one member of the acclaimed beat combo, "The Beauchamp Road Set"

will be performing live on the night. Places for the event are obviously strictly limited and therefore

Just as Abbey Road in London became famous as a breeding ground for talent in the 60's / 70's

With artists such as the "Jack Snatchers", "Porky and the Turtles", "Sincerely Someone Else's",

"Turdbag" and The Chocolate Dustbin" lined up, (yet to be confirmed), for the 5th February event

Malvern is at last getting "on the map". For more information please contact us.

Indoor senior nets will again take place at Malvern College and will run on Wednesday nights:-

issues. Tim Williams was re-appointed as the first team captain for what promises to be a testing first season

in the Birmingham League and we wish him every success as he takes the club forward.

and praise as he handed over the reigns to Kevin Golder. Changes to subscriptions and match fees were discussed

at length and modest increases announced. Those present all agreed that if you want the best facilities then you need
