This year, this will take place on Thursday 11th July in Ashton under Lyne, Greater Manchester at the Ashton Cricket Club, Rayner Lane, Off Sheldon Way Roundabout, Ashton under Lyne, OL7 0FU.

The games start at 10am prompt, and all team members should arrive by 9.40am at the latest, to allow time to select the team for the first match. As usual, all the matches are 8-a-side, and during the day we will play against Cheshire, The Potteries, and Greater Manchester. It is hoped that all players selected will play 2 games, but this will be dependent on performance.
