UK
versus South Africa Test matches to support Breast Cancer
Charity
The
test matches between the United Kingdom and South Africa
in July will help support the Breast Cancer Campaign, as
a fundrasing auction and a collection will be held in the
VIP area on the 19th (the Sunday). This is the first time
a test match series in the UK has been linked to a national
charity in this way and hopefully this link should benefit

and with polocrosse benefiting from the extra exposure a
link such as this brings. To read information on the test
match series and how to book tables in the VIP area click
