Club legend returning to Bretton Gate
PTCC legend Ajaz Akhtar is returning to play for the club in 2016 after two seasons with Ketton Lions and Market Deeping. A quote from an interview with Alan Swann for peterboroughtoday.co.uk:
“Playing away from Town made me realise just what a strong, well-run club they have been for years. I want to make sure I enjoy the final years of my career so I’m looking forward to going back and helping a very talented team to win the league again.”
Fixtures:
- Pre season friendlies confirmed for both 1s and 2s away to Kibworth CC on Saturday 16th April.
- We have entered National 45 Over competition, and are home to Leighton Buzzard CC on Sunday, 24th April.
Bring on 2016!
