Dorset Women’s Showcase Day takes place on Thursday, 31 July, at Wimborne Cricket Club. It’s an exciting day designed to unite the cricket community and celebrate women in sport, and we believe the first of its kind!

There are lots of activities taking place throughout the day. Also attending the event to support the activities are the current Southern Brave players, and former England player Owais Shah. Some of the activities require a separate registration that then provides a free Showcase Game entry ticket. Please see below for the activities that can be registered for and some key information.

When a junior is registered for the skills sessions, their parent will also be provided with a free ticket for the Showcase Game.
