Fireworks Night
Saturday November 4th

Another huge success with the majority of club members turning out for the cool and crisp evening of bonfire, fireworks, food and hospitality. Well done again to everyone who helped turn the 2nd Annual Fireworks Party into a regulay Club event.

Presidents Day
13th August 2006

The rain couldn't dampen the 2006 Presidents Day and although no cricket was played, the tremendous lunch, music, port and Wibbly Wobbly competitions confirmed the day as one of the annual highlights!

Another must for your social calendar. If you didn't experience the lobsters last year, there's still time for this year.

Avorians Summer Ball - 17th June 2006

Emma Bell surpassed her monumental efforts of 2005 and presented an even more lavish and exciting evening this year. A great turn out of more than 150 'penguins' and 'beautiful ladies' (very high scoring this year!) enjoyed champagne in the sunshine before being invited into the marquee for continued merriment. A great deal of money was raised during the night thanks to auction items such as a fully hosted private box at Royal Ascot for 4 people kindly donated by Jerry, a bat signed by Ricky Ponting, a shirt worn by by own 'Higgsy' on his debut for Australia, a customised Gray Nicholls bat and factory tour from 'Prich', a family portrait session at Mark Lewis Photography in Windsor and various fourballs at prestigious golf clubs including Wentworth. Finally everyone took part in a a surreal Wordl Cup game (you had to be there, come on Argentina! ED). The evening got into full swing with music from the live band complemented by various displays of dance by the team and guests. Well done Emma - What a fabulous night. Here's to topping it in 2007!

Friday March 24^th we are holding the Avorians Cricket Club Stag Dinner at Laleham Golf Club, the cost is £35 a ticket. Tables are available in 8’s and we are looking to get 100 people there.  Last year was great fun and former Surrey & England bowler, Robin Jackman, was a very entertaining guest speaker.

We are very fortunate that one of our coaches, Brian Burgess, has offered to show a party of up to 40 Academy members and parents around Lord’s. This will take place on Sunday 12^th March at 3pm with a 2.45pm meet at the Grace Gates – please let me know if you are unsure where this is. The tour usually takes about 1hr 45mins and includes visits to the Longroom, one of the dressing rooms, the museum (to see the ashes), the real tennis court, the grandstand (for overall discussion of the development of the ground), and hopefully, the media centre. If you would like to attend please send me a cheque for £5 per colt and £6 per adult made payable to Avorians Cricket Club.
