The Swansea Mid-Week Leagues

Tell us what you think of this episode

We speak to Robin Wood and Robert Jones, both players and captains  of teams in the mid - week leagues in Swansea from the mid 1980s onwards.

They talk about the leagues as they were then and how they have developed or not over the intervening years.  They give their views on why mid week recreational cricket went into a decline as well as its recent rejuvenation in the format of friendlies they now play.

Whilst both have played competitive cricket with local club sides or in the leagues they both talk about the enjoyment they get from playing their mid week games.

They talk about someof the people that  have playedwith them and theirrelationship with, and thoughts about, the wider recreationalgamein Wales
