And what better way to end the undergraduate term than with the biggest match of the summer? On Friday 26 June, the last day of the UG term, the Warwickshire Bears host the Worcestershire Rapids at Edgbaston in the fiercely anticipated local derby; affectionately known as Bears vs Pears. This isn’t just cricket, its top quality sporting action with added music, atmosphere and all on our doorstep.
We don't like cricket... We love it!
