It seems a long time since we hosted what turned out to be the last Leicestershire Road Running League Event, the Kibworth 6, early in March!

John Robert Gilson (Bob) passed away on the 5 August after a relatively short illness. He is survived by his wife Gloria and many friends made at Kibworth Cricket Club.

Kibworth Velo Club continues to grow - we’ve added another eight riders to our club from Kibworth and surrounding villages.

 As life slowly reverts to what could be the new normal, the full lockdown of Spring 2020 becomes a distant memory…

The first cohort of a new course, to train dog owners to Canicross in Kibworth, with their four legged friends, graduated this week, and they are now taking to tracks and fields to practice their new learned skills.

As a Club we were lucky to be able to host the Kibworth 6 Race on Sunday 8 March, a couple of weeks before the Lockdown was announced. The second event in the LRRL Calendar is a valuable source of income for the Club as well as raising £200 for the Local Air Ambulance Charity.

Tai Chi classes began at Fleckney Sports Centre 16/06/20.

At this point of the summer we would normally be in the busy point of our season but as we all know, this is anything but normal. We are hopeful that some sort of Cricket will take place in Fleckney in 2020. We await guidance from the Leicestershire and Rutland League along with updates from the ECB as to what that looks like.

A cricket practice net re-opens from the 18th May 2020 at Kibworth Cricket Club. The Club has announced one net will be opened for practise sessions.

Fleckney & Kibworth Running Club Report: The recent couch to 5k program finished with a number of runners turning out for the Market Harborough Parkrun in March. We hope that the end of the program is the start of their running adventures with us on our regular Tuesday and Thursday Club Nights.
