Kenthurst Banksia’s UK Tour 2027
A note from the John Campo, the tour organiser:
“Memories are still fresh about the recent Ashes series which was contested in November to early January.
At the end of our last physical meeting, I was approached by a member of one of our Clubs to see if I would be organising a tour to UK 2027.
I am gauging interest amongst all member Clubs of the Association. If I can generate enough interest amongst the clubs I will proceed with the tour. I will make a decision at the end of the season.”
