Covid Cup - Take part in our Virtual Cricket game - Benwell Hill v Felling - 18th April 2020

15 Apr 2020

The Covid Cup is a competition giving you the opportunity to support BHCC in these challenging times. It also gives you the opportunity to win cash prizes.


We will use a computer program to simulate, ball by ball, a game of cricket. The aim of the game is to guess the total number of runs scored in the match. We will do one match every Saturday.


Each game will be 10 overs per side, no powerplay, maximum of 2 overs per bowler. The captains will be asked to select teams, so watch out for your name and see how you go!


There will be regular score updates on Twitter and the scorecard for the game will be available to view on a regular basis on YouTube (details to follow). The first fixture will be on Saturday 18th April at 3pm between BHCC 1st XI and Felling 1st XI to mirror the cancelled NEPL fixture.


To play click on the button below and place your entry for as little as £1.

or go to https://fundly.com/the-covid-cup#

You can then leave a comment giving your guess as to how many runs will be scored. You are allowed one guess per pound you donate. Donations and guesses must be made before the advertised start time of the match.


Should you get it spot on you will win one third of the money in the pot. The remaining two thirds will go to the club.


Should more than one person guess correctly, the prize money will be split evenly between the winners.


Should no one guess correctly, the pot will roll over to the next week.
