All
Out on Police 'Bail'
Brave bowling, wacky wickets and family fun are
in store during a community cricket match being held in Watford on Sunday
August 3rd, 2008.
"Whether you want to support the police or a team made up from the
local community come and watch the match - I can't promise that it will
be professional, but it will be fun,’ said PC Irfan Ishaq based in
St Albans, who organised the family event.
He said: ‘Although the main event is the cricket match, as well as
stalls and other events to keep the family entertained, it is also about
feeling part of our diverse community.
‘And through sport, hopefully we can build up new relationships and
help each other out so that we can live in a safe, happier environment.’
The event is between 1pm and 6pm at the West Herts Cricket Club in Park
Avenue in Watford.
The matches will be between Hertfordshire Constabulary and a team made
up from the local community.
A bouncy castle, food stalls and a recruitment stand, to discuss becoming
a police officer and police staff, will be at the club.
He added: ‘Your support at the event would be much appreciated as
we hope it will be a successful day for everyone - whether we win or loose!
I have been informed that the sunshine will be attending this event!’
Assistant Chief Constable Heather Valentine will be attending to award
the winner team a trophy.
