A visit to the Utilita Bowl (formerly known as the Ages Bowl or The Rose Bowl) is becoming a family tradition. This was the third year running we’ve been down and this year, Southern Brave were taking on Trent Rockets. Our fingers were crossed we would get to see legends Jofra Archer and Joe Root in action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It took us about an hour to get down to Southampton and Jon had booked car parking on site so the queues built up the close we were getting to the stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year’s car park was right next to the stadium … Just a two minute walk to join the queues. The last two years, we’ve been a 20 mins walk away, somewhere on the golf course!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A shorter queue to get in than in previous years and we quickly found our seats and watched the remainder of the Women’s match. Alas Southern Brave Ladies has not had a good season and today didn’t buck the trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In between matches, we dived out to find something to eat. Plenty of street food stalls just around the corner of our stand. After much deliberating, in the end, we chose the eastern van … Callum and I had Teriyaki Chicken with rice and Jon the Katsu Prawn Curry with noodles. Jon didn’t realise the prawns still had heads on … And choosing noodles was a rookie error. Eating noodles standing up with just a fork could have got a little messy!!<\/p>\n\n\n
