We’ve Got a New Marquee!!

Grantchester Cricket Club would like to express our sincere thanks to South Cambridgeshire District Council. They awarded us a grant from their Community Chest Fund for a larger marquee to replace the one we have had on loan from the Trumpington Allotment Society. The new marquee provides more space to provide teas, and shelter in case of rain.
The new marquee offers a much speedier erection (60 seconds according to the instructions) than our previous one and is easier to transport. Some pictures of the marquee in action….
