- Gloucestershire CCC (Glos) – a county in England, part of the West Midlands region. The county is named after its most notable local feature, Glos Hill which rises over 935 feet above sea level at its highest point and is visible from almost every direction around Gloucester City centre. The county has been traditionally considered one of England’s weakest counties by all forms of measurement; it has never finished above fourth position in either domestic competition or overseas tours during its history as an independent entity, although this only happened twice: once during World War II when they won both competitions available under these circumstances and again following their elevation into first-class status by being promoted alongside Sussex in 2005/2006 season. In addition to being one of only two counties never having won an outright County Championship title despite competing regularly since 1894; another unique aspect is that no other county currently plays more than 12 matches per season against each opponent due this reason alone

Cricket in England
In England, cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of eleven players on a cricket field, at the centre of which is a rectangular 22-yard long pitch with a wicket (a set of three wooden stumps topped by two bails) at each end. The objective for each side is to score as many runs as possible before their opponents. Each over consists of six completed deliveries bowled by one bowler and four fielded by one fielder in an attempt to dismiss all batsmen so that they are unable to score runs when play continues until one side has reached its target total.
Make sure to have your tickets ready before you go to watch a game
- Buy your tickets online. You can do this in advance, so you don’t have to worry about finding a seat on the day. If you’re planning to watch a game at Surrey County Cricket Club, we recommend that you buy tickets soon after they go on sale (usually in April or May).
- Check the weather forecast before going out. It’s always better to be safe than sorry when it comes to watching any sport! Make sure that there aren’t any showers forecasted for over night and if there are then make sure that they don’t last too long – it might rain heavily during play time which could ruin everyone’s fun!
- Find out who will be playing against each other before heading down there; this way they’ll know what their team needs before kickoff! When making plans with friends/family members who’ve never been before then try asking them questions like: “Where should we eat?” Or maybe even something simple like “Do we need anything else?”
