The East Beds Charity Cricket Shield has been running for over 60 years and raises funds for local charities via evening cricket matches and an Annual Golf Tournament.
Ten local charities were each presented with a cheque for £500 at the annual Presentation Evening which took place on Wednesday 5 December 2018 at Sandy Village Hall.
In 2019, the East Beds Charity Cricket Shield Golf Day will take place at The Bedford Golf Club, Great Denham on Friday 12 April. Teams of four are required at a cost of £40 per person, which includes a bacon sandwich on arrival, golf and a dinner in the evening. There will also be prizes for the best team and best golfer plus the longest drive on a chosen hole and nearest the pin on a hole.
