Cricketing legend Geoffrey Boycott will be making a very special appearance at The Ironworks at Elsecar on Friday, 27 October at 7:30pm.
The event, which is part of Boycott’s 100th Hundred – The 40th Anniversary Tour, will be an evening of stories and anecdotes by the cricketing legend.
At the evening, hosted by BBC presenter Harry Gration, Geoffrey will be sharing some unseen footage from the BBC archives and some rare photographs from his private collection. The ‘Greatest Living Yorkshireman’ will offer his honest options about the current state of cricket and many other subjects. Peppered with hilarious anecdotes, the show will also be an opportunity for the audience to ask questions about the man himself and the game. It will be fun, fiery evening full of surprises.
Cllr Roy Miller, Cabinet spokesperson for Place, said: “Geoffrey Boycott has been a leading figure in cricket for over a quarter of a century and it is an honour to have him appear in Barnsley. His stories about the beloved game are legendary and it will be fascinating to hear snippets from his illustrious career. The stunning setting of the Ironworks at Elsecar is perfect for the occasion, which will be a must see event for any sporting fan.”
