100 YEARS OF CRICKET AT THE REC

Local Historian, Jack Critchlow, has just reminded Evo that 2026 will see 100 years of Torquay (and Kingskerswell) CC playing at Torquay Recreation Ground.

In preparation for this, Evo would love to hear stories from over the years about The Rec and the Committee (well Evo hasn’t mentioned it yet to them) would like ideas how the century could be celebrated. 

The first scheduled game at The Rec in 1926 was supposed to be a 2nd XI fixture against Chudleigh CC 2nd XI but it is unclear if it went ahead because of the weather – nothing changes!
