Rum. It is fair to say that there were some difficulties in distributing over 1000 bottles of rum last year. Thanks to the feedback of clubs and leagues we have managed to convince Cockspur to assume a new and more user friendly distribution process.
As such we have set up a voucher system which allows participating clubs not free rum, but access to as much rum at cost price (ie better than trade) as they please during the competition period. Not only does this keep the sponsor happy as we are getting the Cockspur brand into cricket clubs around the country but this also represents a very real way of clubs profiting from entry into the competition.
Only those club names that you have given to us as actual entrants will be given the voucher code and will be placed on the list held centrally by the vendors.
