HAYES Cricket Club is proud to welcome competitive disabled sports into the borough as it prepare's to host a Boccia evening.
Boccia is an official Paralympic sport played by able and disabled players from complex needs upwards.
It is very similar to the game of Boules, but using softer balls, although the emphasis of getting nearest the jack remains the same.

Other disabled sports will also be demonstrated throughout the evening, so it is a fantastic opportunity for disabled people in the area who are interested in sport to come along and participate, while also learning about disabled sports clubs in the region.
There will also be an informative DVD presentation hosted by Bob Billson, who is the regional development manager for Special Olympics Great Britain.
Mr Billson will be on hand to answer any questions regarding the best pathway into disabled sport.
The event takes place on the evening of May 1 at the clubhouse in Barnet Wood Road, Hayes, next to Baston School.
