Cricket’s Freddie Flintoff coming to Shropshire

Cricket legend Andrew Flintoff will be in Shopshire next week – facing the bowling of local youngsters.

The retired former England captain will be at Shrewsbury School on Tuesday afternoon visiting the Andrew Flintoff Cricket Academy Course there.

It runs from Monday to Thursday aimed at boys and girls aged five to 16 years and uses a fun and innovative approach based on the fundamentals that made Flintoff the great Test and limited overs cricketer he was before mounting injuries forced him to quit.

And each youngster on the course will have a chance to bowl at him during his visit next week.
