capítulo por capítulo baixar It Matters To Us: The diary of a village cricketer

A funny, heartfelt and wonderfully authentic celebration of village cricket — perfect for fans of grassroots sport, British humour and true stories about community.

It Matters To Us takes you behind the boundary rope and into the world of English village cricket: the characters, the chaos, the rituals, the relationships and the quiet magic of weekend sport that somehow means far more than the scorecard ever shows.

With warmth, wit and sharp observation, Mark Whale brings to life the moments every cricketer and cricket‑lover will recognise:

• The last‑minute phone calls to fill the XI
• The heroic collapses… and the improbable comebacks
• The teas that range from Michelin‑worthy to “health‑and‑safety‑questionable”
• The friendships built over years of shared innings, shared disasters and shared laughter
• The sense of belonging that keeps people returning to the same club, the same ground, year after year

Whether you’ve played for decades or never picked up a bat, this book taps into something deeper than cricket — it’s about connection, community and the small traditions that shape who we become.

• Uplifting stories from the heart of village cricket
• Honest, humorous reflections on grassroots sport
• Real characters and unforgettable moments from the outfield
