Nuts the squirrel

          At Trent Bridge, we expect everyone to be courteous to their fellow spectators and that all those in attendance conduct themselves with a level of decorum befitting of the resplendent surroundings.

          You can do so by sending a text message to 88440 with further details, starting your message with ‘Notts’.

          Alternatively, telephone 0115 982 3000, email whistleblowing@nottsccc.co.uk, or write to the HR Manager, Trent Bridge, Bridgford Road, West Bridgford, Nottingham, NG2 6AG

          Refund Policy: Vitality Blast

          If play is restricted to 9.5 overs or less and no result is obtained, you will be entitled to a full refund on your ticket. If your ticket has been purchased in advance, this will be refunded automatically to the relevant credit or debit card.

          Printed tickets purchased on the day can be returned to the ticket office for a full refund, albeit kindly do so at a later date as opposed to on the day of the game. Alternatively, you may prefer to exchange for any other home regular season match during the same season (subject to availability).

          If ten overs or more are played but no result is obtained, please feel free to exchange your match ticket for any other regular season match at Trent Bridge during the same season (subject to availability).

          Kindly note that we require ticket exchanges to have been made in advance of the day of your chosen fixture.

          This policy applies only to paid-for match tickets.
