Check-out day of European 'Imagination' Roadshow in Belgium
24 April 2002
Check-out day - Glorious spring weather and a return to Edegem to give 150 first and second year pupils a taste of cricket, a taste of how to walk like a crocodile, fly like a beeÖ All good stuff and again the youngsters and teachers love every minute. At the end, the Chairman presents the school with Kwik Cricket sets, Bruce and Mike present the Chairman with a Cricketec pack, and the Chairman presents both Bruce and Mike with an art print of Antwerp. Blimey, once presentations get moving they take on a life of their own ñ this could go on all nightÖ But no, it's 4 pm, school's finished, the trailer's packedÖ Time to hit the trail ñ in this case the motorway that will take the team from Antwerp to Amsterdam and on to a busy schedule with Roland and JanÖ Some 1500 youngsters have benefited from Roadshow visits in Belgium, the schools have taken Kwik Cricket on boardÖ everyone is happy. Cricket Belgium can't sign off its diary without a huge vote of thanks to Bruce and Mike; to Ian, Adam and Alison at the Europe Office; to Flicx; and to all our own people who put in a big support effort over the past 10 days. It's been an incredibly successful experience and will go a long way to underpinning growth of the sport here. We all look forward to having Bruce, Mike and the Roadshow back again!
