Woodhall Spa cricket club's Jubilee Park ground will host its first Minor Counties match on Sunday.

Lincolnshire take on Cambridgeshire at Woodhall Spa in the season opening Minor Counties knockout trophy.

It is the latest accolade for Woodhall Spa cricket club, who last season finished fifth in their debut year in the Lincolnshire Premier League.

Club chairman Tony Armstrong said: "A lot of people have worked very hard over a long period of time for this."

He told BBC Radio Lincolnshire: "I wouldn't say it will be a hard, fast and bouncy track, but it will be true, and hopefully there'll be lots of runs which is what one day cricket is all about."

Play at Woodhall Spa is scheduled to begin at 1100 BST on Sunday.
