Sussex Cricket Society: Lunch with David Gower

The Sussex Cricket Society is opening its doors to new members once again and with such an exciting line up of guests planned in the New Year, now is the perfect time to join. 

The Sussex Cricket Society was formed on 6 April 1965 by Alan Oakman, the former Sussex and England cricketer.

The aims of the Society are "to further cricket interest and enthusiasm and to provide a source of contact between cricket lovers”. To this end the Society holds 6 monthly meetings from October through to March.

The Society's winter programme continues on Wednesday 10th January when David Gower will be speaking at a lunch in Cow Corner at The 1st Central County Ground.

The tickets for this event cost only £34 for members including lunch, and details of how to sign up by the 3rd January will be sent to all new members when joining the Society.

Get in early as the event is already proving popular with existing members. Each member is welcome to bring one guest.

On February 14th it’s another lunch with a great speaker, this time Geoff Miller (Derbyshire, Essex and England).

In March or early April, when the date will depend on Sussex’s pre-season arrangements, an afternoon tea with Sussex Head Coach Paul Farbrace as speaker, will round off the winter’s entertainment.  

Event details (prices, booking information) will appear in the monthly newsletter issued roughly six weeks before an event.

To gain access to these events you will need to be a member of Sussex Cricket Society which you can do by following the link to the Society Website at the bottom of this article and paying an annual membership from just £20.

You will from then on automatically also receive the informative newsletter which is sent out to all our members each month.

The events themselves do vary in price depending on catering costs and all will take place at The 1st Central County Ground in Hove. As you can see and with over 200 members, the Society is looking forward to the New Year.

If not already a member we hope you too will enjoy and support the great work the Sussex Cricket Society does by joining here: https://www.sussexcricketsociety.org/
