A white cricket ball has not yet been bowled or lifted out of the park in anger, but Trent Bridge is already unveiling a groundbreaking first for the NatWest T20 Blast.
The tournament’s opening fixture against the Birmingham Bears will be the William Clarke Stand’s T20 debut as Trent Bridge’s designated family area; a role it has fulfilled with great popularity for international cricket for a number of years.
Situated between the Radcliffe Road End and the Smith Cooper Stand, the William Clarke Stand will be alcohol free and is perfectly located for a host of family fun entertainment on the Trent Bridge Inn Courtyard.
The new Outlaws Cricket Zone will provide the opportunity for youngsters to take part in supervised cricket activities, while an array of branded giveaways will also be available.
Freestyle entertainers and a host of family friendly catering options will also be available at this location, while a bouncy castle and face painting are just a short stroll away in the squash courts behind the pavilion.
Nuts the Squirrel, new and rejuvenated for 2016, will never be far away from the Family Stand – and the entire Outlaws team will be signing autographs in front of the Pavilion at the end of the match.
Seating throughout the ground is unreserved at all NatWest T20 Blast match days, meaning the way to ensure seats in the William Clarke Family Stand is to arrive at the ground early and enjoy the match-day production on the big screen.
The excitement of NatWest T20 Blast returns to Trent Bridge on Friday 20 May as Notts Outlaws face Birmingham Bears in the first of seven home matches in the competition.
Supporters can witness every minute of the action with a NatWest T20 Blast Season Ticket, priced at just £84 (adults), £63 (over 65s) or £203 (family 2+2), with Membership available to U16s at £26 and U21s for £36.
