Botham’s Ashes 40th Anniversary Dinners. – 15 July, 5 August, 19 August, 9 September 2021
They say it was one of, if not THE greatest Ashes series of all time, a collection of test matches between old rivals England and Australia that saw England bounce back from the jaws of defeat over and over again.
One man above all else stood out. Ian Botham performed sporting miracles not once but in three consecutive test matches to overturn almost impossible odds, ably abetted by a string of other household English cricketing names including the late great Bob Willis.
Forty years on The Sporting Club are proud to be staging four major dinners at four of the test grounds that played their part during an unforgettable summer of sport.
