Story
We’ve set up this page to collect pledges and sponsorship for the Toft Pavilion Fund – with all money raised going towards building the long-awaited new pavilion.
For the past 7 years, our club has been working tirelessly to raise money for a new pavilion – a dream that finally becomes reality in September 2026, when building work will begin.
Over the years, we’ve taken on some big challenges to help fundraise:
2018: We ran from Old Trafford Cricket Ground to Toft (15 miles).
2019: We Cycled 100km back from Derbyshire County Cricket Ground to Toft.
2021 (post Covid-19): We ran from the GMEX in Manchester to Toft (20 miles).
2023: Ed ran 165 miles over 6 days from Bristol to Toft and Jimmy & Foz did a 24 hour batathon.
The 2025 Challenge
Now, as a group of six players, we’re taking on one final challenge to raise funds for the pavilion. On Saturday, 27th September 2025, we’ll be attempting the Toft Triathlon Challenge:
🏊 750m cold-water swim in Bala Lake, North Wales
🚴 63km cycle through the hilly Clwydian Range from Bala to Chester Boughton Hall CC
🏃 Marathon run from Chester to Toft (Knutsford)
8+ hours of movement.
Six already half-injured players.
One last challenge.
We'll see how many make it to the finish...
This challenge is all about pushing ourselves, raising funds, and leaving a lasting legacy for the club and future generations.
