We hope to build on our success with some improvements to the 1st XI Oval by erecting a 120m boundary
fence enclosing most of the field, giving it a more professional look and allowing for more sponsors’
advertising. We would like to ask for your help with this venture, either as a sponsor, or as a donor to the
cost of the fencing. This can be in the form of either a family plaque or a company sponsorship logo.
I do hope you will be able to support the future success of King’s cricket.
