Home > Tales from the Meadows

For many of us, cricket is not defined by runs and wickets nor just by matches themselves, but by its people, the incredible characters that you play with and against, and the stories that arise. The laughter and tears, the camaraderie, love and occasional enmity, the often-unbelievable escapades on the pitch and beyond the boundary. 1001 ridiculous incidents and magic moments that go beyond a simple sporting contest. Friends made for life. A limitless chest of tales.

In Tales from the Meadows we take a look at some of the many funny characters and incidents that have made local cricket, and Totty St John's in particular, so special to us all.
