Come celebrate Black History Month with a unique event on Thursday 23rd October at SADACCA (Sheffield And District African Caribbean Community Association)!

Join us for an evening filled with cricket, culture, and community, as we have an amazing line-up, featuring Davina Perrin, opening batter for the Northern Superchargers, who was the first Black British woman to hit a century in a professional T20 during this year’s Hundred Eliminator game.
