In the buildup to the Sub Regional T20 World Cup qualifiers, team St Helena continues their training programme led by Dax Richards.
Until coach Nadeem returns later this month there is a voluntary and mandatory training night. Once the coach arrives training will progress to 4 or 5 times a week.
Alongside of the training the St Helena Cricket Association is carrying out several fundraisers… Already there are 2 raffles underway and a sponsored Half Marathon will take place this weekend.
The Half Marathon is aimed at being an annual event for St Helena Cricket as a fundraiser on a 21.1K trek from Blue Point to St Helena airport.
Even though the weather is unstable this week, there is quite a good number of runners/walkers registered for it.
At the end of the event, there will be a prize giving and medal presentation at 3 pm.
There will also be a bar and boerewors will be on sale.
A fundraising event planned for November is attracting a lot of attention and this is the Legends Day which will be held on Francis Plain. Sign up to our newsletter to get up-to-date news fast.
