The Gloucestershire Exiles is a part-social, part fundraising organisation which is now almost forty years old and boasts a membership of several hundred Gloucestershire supporters from across the country and even around the world.
Originally conceived to bring together supporters from outside the county, the membership now includes many who live in Gloucestershire who wish to enjoy the benefits offered by the Exiles.
Chris Dent meeting Exiles members at Lords
What do we do?
We produce our Exiles magazine, Outside-edge, which is published twice a year and sent to all of our members. Outside-edge keeps our members in touch with the club news through articles submitted by members and contributions from county players and other cricket lovers.
We also aim to hold at least 2 functions each year. These include:
Meet the Players evening
This annual event was held at the Indoor School at Lord’s, on 27th April during the LV= Championship match against Middlesex. During the evening the Exiles Player of the Year Award for 2009 was present to Steve Kirby, while for many it was the opportunity to meet and greet GCCC newcomers Jonathan Batty, Chris Dent and Gemaal Hussain.
Exiles Lunch at Cheltenham
The annual lunch will take place in a private marquee at Cheltenham on 31st July. The event is normally attended by well over 100 members and guests. It is a very popular event, so get your tickets early. Only £28 each from Ian Herdman on 01635 42284
Exiles Dinner
A dinner was held in the Committee Dining Room at Lord’s in February where a good time was had by all and funds were successfully raised for the Club.
AGM
This year’s AGM was again held at Lord’s and was attended by John Bracewell and Alex Gidman, who addressed the members ahead of the season.
