WORCESTERSHIRE are hosting a women's soft-ball cricket festival at Blackfinch New Road on Sunday, August 12.

The competition starts at 9am and includes two free tickets to Worcestershire Rapids' T20 game with Notts Outlaws afterwards at 2.30pm in the marquee.

More than 400 women have already taken part in Worcestershire Cricket's six previous festivals and this year promises to be the biggest yet.

Soft-ball cricket involves no pads and is for everybody, no matter the skill level, fitness, or age.

The day also includes a T-shirt and coaching as well as Prosecco and food in the marquee.

Anyone without a team is welcome to come down and organisers will find a group for them.
