Linden Homes has supported the junior section of Torquay Cricket Club again this season and were challenged to a match by its young members.
Linden Homes, part of the Galliford Try Group, invited members from both companies to take part in a healthy bit of teambuilding – headed up by Galliford Try executive chairman, Greg Fitzgerald.
Nigel Palmer, managing director of Linden Homes, said: “The cricket match with Galliford Try Partnerships and the junior section was great fun and everyone really enjoyed themselves.
“We’re delighted to support the local community in such a positive way. Inspiring the younger players really appealed to us; their enthusiasm for the sport is excellent and we have enjoyed following their matches – there are some very talented players with excellent bowling and batting skills, they’re definitely ones to watch!”
Club chairman, Dennis Brewer, from Torquay Cricket Club said: “We’re thrilled that Linden Homes supported us this year as it has enabled us to invest in facilities and focus on competitions for all young people at the club. It really is great to be sponsored by a local company with a strong reputation.”
Torquay Cricket Club has been in existence for 79 years, there are currently five senior teams, two ladies teams and six junior teams and its ground is situated near to Torquay’s seafront.
Linden Homes has a number of current and coming soon developments in the local area, including White Rock in Paignton; Orestone View in Goodrington; Webster Place in Newton Abbot; Camomile Lawn and Follaton Oak in Totnes and Kings Gate in Kingsteignton. The company is also building homes in Exeter, Okehampton, Westward Ho!, Plymouth, Duporth, Grampound, Truro, Penryn, Camborne and Redruth.
