November 16, 2001

Gloucestershire's groundsman Geoff Swift has landed the ideal retirement present by winning the 'Out Groundsman Of The Year' award for the second time.

Geoff has been rewarded for his fantastic pitches at the Cheltenham College Ground, which Gloucestershire use for their Cricket Festival.

The cricket was exhilarating, and the crowds swelled as the Festival saw Gloucestershire defeat Sussex, Notts and Northants. So a big thank you to Geoff for playing his part in providing such wonderful entertainment.
