Cricket is Back! September 09

After a long hot summer where the world has gone cricket crazy once more, mainly thanks to the Ashes, Ibiza CC has a full programme of cricket for September 2009.

Mid September sees the return of Cheam Wanderers who count a couple of first class players amongst their ranks. Cheam toured back in 2007 and came out victorious in both very close fought matches against two of the strongest teams Ibiza has ever put onto a field. Ibiza will be keen to return the favour over two games of 35 overs on 15 and 17 September.

Proving the popularity of Ibiza as a cricket destination the island welcomes four teams in the same week. Beeston and Toton CC from Nottingam join Wiseton CC, Chaldon CC and Mallards CC for a fiesta of cricket commencing on 25 September where 6 games will be played in 5 days.  The highlight will be a twenty20 tournament between Wiseton, Chaldon and Mallards with the victors being presented with the Ibiza Cup.  Ibiza CC has invited players from Yorkshire CCC including Craig White and Darren Lehmann to come over and present the trophy and maybe turn their arm over for the crowds.

St Anne's All Stars complete the line up in early October with two further games of 35 over cricket so September and early October should be very memorable for all who will be involved.
