Third And Final Year Of Ramnesty - Boots And All

Bookmark and Share

The Ramnesty offering from Ram International to Cricket Clubs & Schools throughout the UK has been an outstanding success over the past two years.

More than 5000 used balls – including many cricket balls – have been sent to Africa where they are so desperately needed. BBC Presenter, John Inverdale, thanked William Eve, Chairman of Ram International, saying:

“More than 120 schools have benefited from upgrading their old balls – over 5000 of them - with Ram match balls at half-price. In addition, several thousand African children will benefit from having balls to play with – what a great initiative!”

2010 is the third and final year of the Ramnesty offering but with a big difference – Ram are also accepting old boots! Providing the boots are clean and useable, with the laces tied together, Ram will replace them with a brand new Ram Test+ Super Match Cricket ball at half price. See the pleasure that proper boots bring to African kids, so send your old boots or old balls to Ram now, as the offer ends soon.
