TOUR 2008 - SATURDAY 24th MAY - THURSDAY 29th MAY
Saturday 24th May (Day One) |
As our League fixtures against Pontypridd are postponed we are able to start tour on the Saturday. We are immediately going overseas as we have a fixture arranged against Bembridge on the Isle of Wight - they've promised cheap Magners and a Barbeque. This will be followed by a night out in Sandown with an overight stay at The Sandhills. |
 |
| Sunday 25th May (Day Two) |  |
After a hearty breakfast and the first court session, we will have to get the return ferry and pick up a coach to go to our second match at Farley CC, just outside Salisbury in Wiltshire. Obviously the game won't take place until we had had Sunday Roast and a jar at the Hook & Glove Pub. After the match and a few more social beverages, we travel on to teh Etap Hotel in Southampton and enjoy an evening at leisure. |
| Monday 26th May (Day Three) | Would you believe that Glamorgan are playing Hampshire at the Rose Bowl so it's all off to support the Dragons... |
.........   |
| Tuesday 27th May (Day Four) |
|
Another morning of breakfast and judgments followed by match no.3 - An exciting tie on the edge of the New Forest at Hythe & Dibden CC |
| Wednesday 28th May (Day Five) | After the usual morning format, we leave for Match no.4 which is against Sarisbury CC (just outside Southampton). After the match our hosts are generously putting on a BBQ to help us prepare for our last night of tour... |
 |
| Thursday 29th May (Day Six) |
|
Almost there now!! - The fines committee should be showing leniency by this stage. Match no. 5 is confirmed against Wimborne CC which looks a real cracker!! |
| Cost: | We have managed to get enough people to tour to keep the price very competitive. To tour the whole 5 nights / 6 days will cost just £300... and then knock £50 off per night so 4 nights is £250, 3 nights £200 and 2 nights £150. |
|
| What do you get for your money?: | You get all the accommodation (all en-suite rooms), travel to and from the South Coast, opportunity to play in the tour matches. The fees also pay for two match balls per game, teas and a presentation shirt to each host team. Every tourist will also receive a quality tour playing shirt, a tour polo shirt and a tour smart shirt to arrive at the games. |
|
| Places: | We already have 22 people coming along (for either part or all tour) which is a great effort. Remember though, the more we get to join us, the cheaper the overall price. To avoid disappointment though, get your £100 deposits in early to Chris Bridges or Russ Thomas |
