Details are:

Start at 16:00

Finish at 19:00

The children will play cricket the whole time with the gym split in two so we'll have two games going on at once. We'll break at 17:30 for some food and the Awards presentation and then from 18:00 to 19:00 the kids will continue to play. 

Everyone to bring a plate please!

We look forward to seeing you all there for a fun event to finish up our 2009 Season!
