Charity Cricket Dinner

Former Hampshire cricketer and international umpire, Rotarian John Holder, organises an annual charity dinner to raise funds for the provision of coaching for young amateur cricketers in the Rochdale area.

​

Over the last 8 years, the event has raised in excess of £20,000 with speakers including former England captains Michael Vaughan, Mike Gatting and David Gower along with Michael Holding, Devon Malcolm, Jonathan Agnew, Neil Mallender and Jim Cumbes.

The coaching scheme is administered through the Lancashire Cricket Foundation, a charity arm of Lancashire County Cricket Club.
