Lewes Lions 'Stump Up' cash towards a new

Bowling Machine for Ringmer Cricket Club

Lion President Ann Dunn pictured here with Murray Barnett (Junior Cricket Manager) and members of the junior section of Ringmer Cricket Club being presented with a cheque for £200.00. This is towards the cost of replacing the machine that was stolen last year. The machine is extremely useful for practising stroke play as it can deliver the ball at a consistent speed and line, giving the young players plenty of chances to practice any particular shot.
