A LOCAL indoor walking cricket club has launched a drive to boost its numbers. The group meet at Wellington Sports Centre every Tuesday, from 10a.m. to 12 noon. Walking cricket is a slower-paced version of the sport and can be played by both men and women who also enjoy socialising. No experience is required and is suitable for those of all abilities. A spokesperson for the club said: "We have been going for about 18 months and enjoy great walking/jogging cricket for the over 50s, although we welcome those who are maybe younger with health difficulties. We play a match every Tuesday morning and would like to promote our club, so we can get a few more members. "I'm sure that once you try it, you will really enjoy it. For free taster sessions, call Ali Cottey on 01823 271271 or email [email protected]. The sessions cost only £4.20.
