COVID-19 REFUND PROMISE

Whilst the Government announcement on 22nd February 2021 gave us all plenty of optimism that Middlesex Cricket will be able to welcome supporters back into our out-ground venues of Radlett and Merchant Taylors' School this year, the nature of the pandemic means that there are still many uncertainties that exist, which could at any time impact on the ground capacities that we will safely be able to operate to.

In these times of great uncertainty, Middlesex Cricket is making a firm commitment in 2021 to any supporters purchasing out-ground tickets, that should any match be significantly affected by the ongoing pandemic, to the extent that the match needs to be played behind closed doors or capacities be reduced for social distancing, leading to us not being able to fulfil the seat for any tickets purchased, then a full refund will automatically be issued.

We want all our spectators to have absolute peace of mind when purchasing tickets, knowing that their safety is our priority at all times, and our ticket refund promise gives this assurance.

We sincerely hope that we can look forward to a summer of cricket to remember and to welcoming crowds back to safely watch us in action in 2021.
