Hampshire Cricketers aim to help lose those Christmas pounds!

Hampshire's cricketers are celebrating the relaunch of The Rose Bowl Fitness & Squash Club with a New Year `Get Fit' campaign at Hedge End Retail Park.

On 6th and 7th January Robin Smith, John Crawley, Will Kendall, and other team members will be joining The Rose Bowl Fitness & Squash staff to give advice to shoppers who would like to improve their health and fitness after succumbing to the Christmas festivities this year.

With the aid of some of the Club's high-tech sports equipment, the cricketers will be working on their own fitness regimes as they prepare for the start of the cricket season in early April.

"With all the festivities, Christmas is a notorious time of year for putting on a few extra pounds of weight," says batsman John Crawley. "So, with the help of the new Rose Bowl Fitness & Squash Club, we are aiming to show that regular exercise and sport can be enjoyable as well as beneficial."

Robin and the cricketers will be at the Marks & Spencer and Sainsburys outlets between 11am and 2pm on Tuesday 6th and Wednesday 7th January. Further information can be obtained by ringing Katie Hall on 023 8047 2009.
