A cricket club are organising a fundraising race night to raise money for much-needed replacement sight-screens.

Chirk Cricket Club Grants Officer Andrew Edwards said: “Unfortunately, we are in desperate need for help to replace our outdated sight-screens.

"Sight-screens are very important in cricket as they enable the batter to get a clear view of the ball from the bowler. Without this there could be an increased chance of injury. "The Race Night at The AAA’s Club, Chirk on Saturday, July 6, coincides with the potential of two of the home nations playing in the Euro 2024 quarter-finals that evening. So, we hope that the locals and club members will attend in numbers.
