Victoria Club will play in Lurgan Park

VICTORIA Cricket Club will be playing cricket in Lurgan Park this season.

Criagavon Council rejected the initial proposal of a 575% increase on what Victoria were charged in 2011, thanks largely to the petition which amassed over 1, 000 signatures in only four days.

The proposal which came before the council on Wednesday night equated to a 125% increase, however, this was also rejected in favour of a 58% increase.

We would like to thank each and every one of you for your support, and for signing the petition. Your support was very much appreciated.

We are holding a Table Quiz in the Mechanics’ Institute, Lurgan on Friday, March 30.

The Victoria Cup (a T20 pre-season tournament between Victoria, Lurgan, Donaghcloney and Millpark) will be played in Lurgan Park on Saturday, April 21.
