Cricket club given £50,000

The Jack Hutchinson Pavilion at The Hollow has served Potton Town Cricket Club well for over 20 years.

Now, thanks to Sport England and other generous local donors, the pavilion is set to undergo a huge refurbishment.

There will be a new large function area, big enough to support a broad range of social and sporting activities, two additional, larger changing rooms and kitchen and bar facilities.

Alistair Burt, MP for North East Bedfordshire, said: “I am delighted to hear that Potton Town Cricket Club has been awarded £50,000 from Sport England’s Inspired Facilities fund.

“I have been privileged to see the upcoming plans for the new facilities which will be an excellent addition to the town, and add even more to the thriving and vibrant community.”
