Walker Ground ‘5 A-Side Football Tournament 2010′

3 Tournaments on 3 different days

13th, 14th, 15th July 2010 @ The Walker Ground


Following another successful tournament in 2009, the Walker Cup, Ladies/Juniors Trophy and Walker Trophy will be held over three separate days in 2010.  I am sure Old Minchendenians will be keen to retain the cup this year.
You are invited to enter a Team in this years Football Competition at the Walker Ground the Tournaments will take place between 6pm and 9pm.

Entry fee is £60 per team for each competition


WALKER
CUP THURSDAY 15th JULY
 
12 teams will contest the Walker Cup, which is aimed at regular/serious footballers.  A squad of 7 players is recommended and each Team will play a minimum of 5×10 minute matches.
 

WALKER LADIES/JUNIOR TROPY WEDNESDAY 14TH JULY
 
This year we hope to run Ladies and Juniors tournaments provided we receive enough interest.


WALKER TROPHY TUESDAY 13TH JULY

This competition is aimed at the less serious competitors and any player displaying talent or significant levels of fitness will be sent off immediately.  A squad of 10 players is recommended with unlimited substitutions.  Ideal contestants will not have played football seriously for many years and a “physical” approach to the game will be frowned upon.

 
 
 WALKER GROUND
The Walker Ground is a beautiful sporting oasis in Southgate, close to Arnos Grove Tube Station. It is home to Southgate Cricket Club and hosts Middlesex CC for first class matches. Post match food will be available from the Walker Café and we hope teams will enjoy a post-match beer or two from our selection of cask conditioned ales and chilled lagers.  This part of the evening is as important as the football itself.  See www.thewalkerground.co.uk and “Pictures”.
 
 
 
 WALKER TRUST 
 
 

The Walker Cricket Ground Trust is a registered charity dedicated to maintaining the ground for the benefit of the people of Southgate.  This event will raise much needed finance for the Trust and your support would be appreciated.

Southgate Summer Cricket Camps

We’re pleased to announce that we’ll be holding Cricket Camps throughout the Summer, to coincide with school holidays.

The camps will provide professional cricket coaching for boys and girls from the ages of 6 to 16 years old. The camps will be run by qualified Level 1 and Level 2 cricket coaches.

‘DOWNLOAD AN APPLICATION FORM’

The Camps will take place at The Walker Ground, home of Southgate Cricket Club and one of the finest and most beautiful club grounds in London. Recently it’s where Middlesex CCC have played their ‘out-matches’, away from Lords. And to make the Camps even more special, Mike Gatting, the former Middlesex and England Captain, will be making regular visits!

45_walker_ground_southgate_summer_cricket_camps_2The Camps cater for all standards, from beginners to advanced. So don’t worry if you’ve never picked up a bat before, this is the perfect chance to give it a try!


Camp Dates:

Monday, May 31st – Friday, June 4th [COMPLETED]

Summer Holiday:

July 26th to 30th
August 2nd to 6th

August 23rd to 27th


Times:

10am to 3.30pm, Mon – Fri.

Cost:

£75 for the week, or £20 per day.

To book:

Print off and fill in the short online booking form, then send it, along with a cheque (made payable to The Walker Cricket Ground Trust), to Lynda Colt at the address below (or you can drop them off at the club if it’s easier). Alternatively, call or email Lynda Colt on the number or email address below.

Disclaimer:

As always, parents or guardians will need to sign a disclaimer, giving approval for the player’s participation.

We’ve added it to the online booking form, to make things easy. But if you don’t book using the online form, then parents or guardians should sign a form when they drop their child off on the day of the Camp. The forms will be readily available.

More details:

Full use of The Walker Ground car park is available.

Wear cricket kit if you have it, otherwise sports kit is fine.

Everyone should bring trainers or non-studded cricket shoes for use in the nets. These or studded cricket shoes can be worn outside the nets on the grass. Bring your own cricket gear (bat, pads, gloves, helmet etc) if you have it. But don’t worry if you don’t, it will all be provided. Everyone must wear their own pouched cricket briefs or jockstrap though. These aren’t for sharing!

In the event of rain we have indoor facilities but we may decide to play some football too. So pack some football boots and shin-pads just in case! (Fortunately our main cricket coach is also a qualified football coach.)

‘DOWNLOAD AN APPLICATION FORM’

We have changing rooms and washing facilities, so bring a towel if you want a shower at the end of the day.

There are prizes to be won at the end of each week. There will also be written feedback on each player by the coaches. The coaches will monitor player progress and report back at the end of each camp in the form of a written report featuring areas of strength and areas which need improving.

Hopefully that’s everything you need to know. But if there’s anything we haven’t covered here, just give Lynda Colt a call at The Walker Ground on the number below.

We hope you enjoy the Cricket Camps, they should be great fun for everyone involved. If they do wet your appetite for cricket then we hope you’ll perhaps consider joining Southgate Cricket Club, based at the magnificent Walker Ground, which runs a thriving Colts section as well as successful senior sides.

Good luck and hit’em for six!


Ben Hartman
(Southgate Cricket Club Chairman)
