Hunting club to stage anniversary cricket match
3:50pm Saturday 2nd May 2009 in News By Standard reporter
THE Inn at Fossebridge is to sponsor a special cricket match to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Cotswold Hunt Supporters Club.
The match will also recall last year's 150th anniversary of the hunt itself.
The inn's sponsorship will pay a challenge cup to be warded to the winning team in a 20-20 cricket match between hunstpeople and supporters.
Robert Jenkins, owner of The Inn at Fossebridge, near Cirencester, said: "We are delighted to sponsor The Fossebridge Inn Cup, especially as so many of our guests and diners are involved with the hunt."
The match will be on June 26 at Stowell Park - with a running commentary for those who do not know the rules of cricket. There will also be a barbecue.
