A charity rounders tournament is being organised to raise funds for The Children’s Centre.
Teams are being urged to sign up as soon as possible for the event at Vagabonds Rugby Club, Ballafletcher Road, Braddan, on Thursday, July 11, at 6pm. Deadline for entries is Tynwald Day, Friday, July 5.
The winners will be crowned Rounders Champions but, says Susie Cox, fundraising co-ordinator at The Children’s Centre, the emphasis will be on friendly competition and having fun.
‘Rounders is a great game that anyone can play and we want the tournament to kickstart our summer of fundraising events.’
The charity is looking for teams of nine, and the price is £10 per head and £5 for children under 15. It’s open to everyone from corporate teams looking for a social get together while raising funds for a good cause, to teams of families and friends just wanting to have a fun night out.
The Pavilion in Port St Mary will be providing catering for the event with a barbecue, and the Vagabond’s Rugby Club bar will be open throughout.
The Children’s Centre thanked everyone who has helped to stage the tournament, particularly sponsors Paragon Recruitment.
Entry forms can be found at www.thechildrenscentre.org.im or by emailing susiecox@thechildrenscentre.org.im – or you can call Susie on 676076 for more details.
