Date: 20th August 2014
IN SUPPORT OF THEIR TEAM MATE WHO IS BATTLING CANCER
The game is at Hightown CC on Monday 25th August 2014 starting at 1.00pm between a Hightown XI and a Crosby St. Mary's XI
Proceeds from the match will go to R Charity the official charity of the Royal Liverpool Hospital, http://www.rlbuht.nhs.uk/Fundraising/Pages/Default.aspx and also to the Anthony Nolan Trust,who can be found on http://www.anthonynolan.org/
Both of these have been crucial to Russ Brennan during his treatment. Russ has been a member for over 10 years at Hightown CC, he was diagnosed with non Hodgkin's Lymphoma for the second time earlier this year.
Hightown CC hopes that as many members and friends of the club as possible will come down on the day to support Russ. They have already had an amazing response from the local community so far and are very grateful to their two kit sponsors, Karen Parks Sales & Lettings and Eden Play, who have ensured they can raise even more money on the day."
The match will be a 40 over per side game, starting at 1:00pm, played using coloured kit provided by Total Cricket Solutions.
In addition there will be raffles, a series of fun challenges, food and drinks promotions, all designed to maximise the fundraising effort.
The playing shirts will also be available to purchase following the match for just £20.00.
Anyone who is interested in buying a shirt, or any additional local businesses interested in supporting this event, are asked to contact the club via 07795 440 495.
