ECB Girls Softball Festival at Wellington
Cricket Shropshire is gearing up for its ECB Girls’ Softball Festival at Wellington CC on July 20 – a day of fun and competitive action.
This year the festival which is kindly sponsored by Furrows will be split in to two age groups – Under 12s and Under 14s.
Cricket Shropshire’s Women and Girls Officer Naomi Payne said: “We welcome entries from all clubs – whether you have a fully-fledged girls’ section or are just starting out.
“Please note, that you are capped at a maximum of two teams per club, and entry into this festival is FREE for all clubs!”
The U12 festival will run from 10am to 12:30pm and the U14 festival will begin from 1pm and end at 3.30pm.
Naomi added: “Winners and runners up will receive a medal during the presentation once all games are concluded. And ‘Champagne Moment’ of each festival will also receive a gift (non-alcoholic, of course!)
Deadline to register an interest for this festival will be Thursday 17th July at 5pm. After that, all fixtures will be generated and distributed to all teams attending on the day.
Naomi added: “Cricket Shropshire representatives will be in attendance to ensure the festival runs smoothly on the day, but we please ask that volunteers, coaches and/or parents help score and umpire where possible.
“We anticipate this festival to gather plenty of interest, so get your teams registered as soon as possible to avoid missing out, as the maximum teams allowed per festival will be capped at 12!”
