Grayshott Wanderers, Grayshott’s newly-formed walking cricket team, impressed in their first festival appearance at St Cross Cricket Ground in Winchester.

The Wanderers won four out of their five fixtures and only just missed out on winning their fifth game.

A team of ten made the journey to Winchester for a well-organised event with everyone enjoying themselves and meeting new walking cricketers.

The other teams who took part were two Eastleigh sides, Fleet, Gosport Borough and the New Forest. The event was organised by the Hampshire Cricket Board.

Walking cricket is primarily aimed at participants aged 55 or older, but is open to male and female cricketers who might not be able to participate in mainstream cricket because of mobility or other issues.
