Somerset Cricket Foundation, in partnership with Bradfords, are pleased to announce the return of the Bradfords Community Festivals for the 2023 season. Launched in 2022, the Bradfords Community Festivals provided children aged 8-11, a fresh new cricketing experience. Played as countdown cricket, the format allowed all children of all abilities a chance to take part and enjoy their cricket.

The festivals provided a great opportunity for All-Stars and Dynamos graduates, as well as anyone new to cricket, a chance to play. 10 local festivals took place across Somerset with 62 teams taking part, with the final festival being held at The Cooper Associates County Ground on Sunday 24 July 2022.

Now in its 2nd year, Somerset Cricket Foundation are looking for clubs to host and participate in the Bradfords Local Community Festivals in 2023.

We are also pleased to announce that the Bradfords Community Festival will be returning to The Cooper Associates County Ground on Sunday 30 July 2023. If you’d like to know more about about the Bradford’s Community Festivals, or would like to register a team, please contact Ben Osborne.

Expression of interest to host a Bradfords Festival closes Wednesday 1st March.
