Derbyshire Falcons Men will face Worcestershire Rapids at Repton School on Friday 15 August, returning to the venue for the first time since 1988.
The Metro Bank One-Day Cup fixture is sponsored by Carfulan Group, with Baron & Grant as Associate Sponsor and Matchball Sponsor: Fisher German.
Repton School has long been a breeding ground for Derbyshire cricketers, from the likes of Donald Carr and Chris Adams to recent Pathway graduates, Harry Moore and Yousaf Bin Naeem, and the fixture now represents a further opportunity to take professional cricket around the county, building on the ongoing popularity of the BRM Chesterfield Festival of Cricket in the north.
Repton School was the Club’s training base during the Covid-19 pandemic, with The County Ground being used a bio-secure venue for international cricket, while it has been a regular venue for Derbyshire Second XI fixtures.
Tickets are on sale now for this unique fixture, which will mark Derbyshire’s first visit to Repton for a first team game in more than 30 years. Demand is expected to be high, as supporters look forward to experiencing a new ground, so buy yours now to secure your seat!
