Carlsberg South West Peninsula League: Easter Ground-Hop: April 1, 2 & 3 2010.
The Carlsberg South West Peninsula League are pleased to announce the final details, schedules, prices and information on Easter's Ground-Hop Event. The event will run from Maundy Thursday (1 April) to Easter Saturday (3 April). Whilst there is no official accommodation this year, those that require coach transport to games are asked to stay in the city of Truro. The schedule will see seven matches with one on Thursday, and three each on both Good Friday and Easter Saturday. Coach transport will be available on both Friday and Saturday. On the Thursday night, trains from Truro on the "Maritime Branch Line" to Falmouth, operate at least an hourly service. The event starts with a Premier Division fixture on Maundy Thursday night (1 April) with Falmouth Town hosting St Blazey at the legendary Bickland Park. The 7.45pm kick-off has also been chosen to help those travelling down for the weekend to have plenty of time to get to the game. On Good Friday the schedule sees three games in the far West of Cornwall area with first off a trip to the most Westerly ground in the "pyramid" as Mousehole entertain Porthleven at Trungle Parc with an 11am kick off. We then trek to the gloriously named Trevassack Park for the 3pm kick-off between hosts Hayle and visitors Camelford. Friday concludes with a trip to Penlee Park for a Premier Division encounter between Penzance and Torpoint Athletic with a 7pm kick off. Saturday again sees three matches with the emphasis on central Cornwall this time as we start the day with an 11am kick-off at League new comers Perranporth who entertain Dobwalls at Ponsmere Valley. The Saturday afternoon match sees the local derby between Godolphin Atlantic and Newquay which is sure to draw a huge crowd, kick off at Godolphin Way is 2.30pm. We then head inland to Foxhole Stars who complete the weekend with another local derby as they entertain St Austell at Goverseth Park with a 6pm kick off. Admission to all seven matches plus an information pack and tickets containing directions, ground info etc is available at £25 per person. The seven host clubs will all receive a share of this money to cover your admission to all the games. Some clubs last year failed to charge non-ticket holders full price, but this year clubs are being instructed to ensure ticket holders have not only the info pack, but full value for money. The admission ticket price has also been frozen at 2009 prices to give even more value for money. Coach transport will be available for both Friday and Saturday at just £28 per person with pick ups and drop offs outside Truro Railway station which is central in the city each day plus on the Saturday evening we will also drop off at St Austell railway station at 8.15pm. We are using a different coach firm this time as we are based further west than last year. Tickets are now on sale and will remain so until the 15 March when the coach firm require final numbers. To book your place please complete the attached form and send in your cheque as soon as possible. We look forward to meeting up with you all at Easter.
