Top Class Cricket Returns To Newport After 25 Years
June 2016
Top Class Cricket Returns To Newport After 25 Years. The List A Match between Glamorgan CCC and Pakistan A on Friday, July 15th. will be played at Newport CC's Spytty Park Headquarters which is part of the impressive Newport International Sports Village (NP19 4PT).
The last Top Class Cricket to be played in Newport was the Glamorgan v Yorkshire, Refuge Assurance,
40 over Sunday League Match on June 24th, 1990. Unfortunately, the match held at Rodney Parade,
was abandoned without a ball being bowled, due to bad weather and proved to be the last occasion
Glamorgan visited Newport. The Rodney Parade ground was sold by Newport Athletic Club to build
a school on the site.
However, 25 years on and Newport CC are flourishing at their Spytty Park site and can't wait for the July date.
A special Souvenir Match Day Programme is being produced and the club are looking
for Company's to Advertise in the Programme.
