Charity Cup Match between champions Harris Bay and Somerset is staged tomorrow at Somerset Cricket Club.

Over the years the old boys have contributed thousands of dollars to various charities, the very first donation 44 years ago being one for 5. Last year the amount donated to PALS totalled $1,774.75.

Some of the charities to have benefitted include Sunshine League, Hope Homes, St. John's Ambulance Brigade, Somerset Brigade Band, Summer Haven, Mount Zion AME Church, which was severly damaged during Hurricane Emily in 1987, Friends of Agape House, LCCA and the Packwood Home. Cup Match and Eastern Counties players of the past regularly participate in the match which alternates between Somerset and Harris Bay fields. Some of the rules include: all players must be over 40 years old and must not have played competitive cricket for five years prior to being selected for the old boys match. The game is always played on the first Thursday in September, starting at 11 a.m. and going until 7 p.m. with a one hour lunch break.

Harris Bay won last year's match by 113 runs to dethrone champions Somerset, who retained the cup in 1984 after the event witnessed its first tie match in its 42-year history.

The captains for tomorrow's game will be Lionel Darrell for Harris Bay and George Wade for Somerset.
