Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page on behalf of Toft Cricket Club.

2018 saw the historic Toft Cricket Club begin a mammoth fundraising journey, with the aim over the 10 years to be able to fund a new pavilion in time for our centenary year in 2027.

Toft 1st XI currently play their cricket in the Cheshire Premier League and have a proud history having reached 2 National Village Knockout finals, winning in 1989, along with the National T20 final in 2019. We have over 400 members aged between 18 and 90. There are three senior sides who play over the weekend and an over 40s team which meet on a Wednesday night. We also run nine junior teams and have a charity side called the Toft Taverners, who do a brilliant job of raising funds for the elderly people of Knutsford to take a big trip to the seaside each year. During the season over 150 juniors take part in training sessions on the outfield and facilities. 

Throughout the last 91 years the main body of the pavilion has remained the same with various renovations taking place over time, however it is now very dated and in need of modernising. The club is a true family club and believe in promoting youth into the senior teams where possible. Many of the current senior team players have been at the club since a very young age, some since the age of 9/10.

2018 saw the guys run 23km (14.3m) from Old Trafford Cricket Ground back to Toft, raising a an incredible amount for the fund from a lot of very generous supporters.

2019 saw us cycle 105km back from Derbyshire Cricket Ground, again being supported by a huge number of generous donations.

Before covid-19 reared it's ugly head, we had 25+ hikers preparing to take on our biggest challenge yet, the 3 peaks within 24 hours. However that challenge has now been postponed to 2021, with a new challenge taking it's place this September.

We now have 7 people signed up to run 16 miles from Manchester's NHS Nightingale hospital back to Toft on September 19th, with 20% of donations being forwarded to NHS charities as we look to recognise the incredible work these charities do for us all in society.

So please give what you can to help the future of this great club and to support the work of our amazing NHS!

Any amount you can give is hugely appreciated and will inspire us to complete the run on the day.
