FORMER players of Gala Cricket Club are being invited to its first reunion for 14 years.

All are invited to come along on Saturday, May 6 when Gala will host Kelso in the East Championship following promotion last season.

Ex-players are invited to watch the game which begins at 12noon, and reminisce with their former team-mates about their on and off the pitch memories.

The bar will be open throughout the afternoon while complimentary food will be offered during the day.

Information will also be provided on the club's new five year strategy.

A Gala CC spokesperson said: "We last held a similar event in 2003 as part of the club's 150th celebrations, which was a great night attended by many former players.

"We would love to see a similar turnout this year at the start of a big season for Gala, with a new strategy aiming to make the club more visible, vibrant and community focussed, as well as participation in the East Championship, highest level the club has ever played in.

"We look forward to welcoming our former players to the club."

Anyone seeking further information or to confirm attendance can email chairman Jim Johnston (jimbjohnston@hotmail.com), Mike Halls (mikehalls0612@btinternet.com) or secretary Kenny Paterson (kppaterson@yahoo.co.uk).
