It truly was an honour to meet Sir Garfield Sobers. Sir Garry is without a doubt one of the most inspirational people I have ever met.

It was fascinating to hear parts of his life story, starting with his humble beginnings, playing dominoes for Barbados and finishing his amazing career as the greatest all round player to ever play the game. I am inspired that he is still passionate about promoting and improving cricket through engaging young men and women around the world in his cricket tournament. Not only has he already left behind an immense legacy, with all of his personal achievements, he is still trying to improve the future of world cricket as well. He truly is a living legend and we thank him so much for dedicating his time to coming down to King's Bruton and meeting us all.

Some quotes from the boys...

'It was amazing to meet someone who made cricket his life, not for the money but simply for the love of it, modern day professionals could learn something from him.' 

'What an inspirational person. He was so endearing, confident, funny and entertaining. He had real gravitas.'

'I wish he was my grandad'  

'I didn't quite understand just how impressive he was until after the event, when I spent some time Googling him. He truly is a living legend.' 

'He talked in a way, that just made you want to listen.'
