Game Changer tells the remarkable story of Gian Singh Virdi, who after emigrating to England in 1962, played international hockey, experienced the shocking events of the 1972 Munich Olympics and became Yorkshire County Cricket Club's first non-white coach in 1989.
Decades later and now 80 years old, Gian embraces his final challenge – to inspire a small, village cricket club on the brink of folding to challenge for league and cup success.
A licensed bar and a range of snacks (samosas, bhajis, spring rolls and biryani) will be available.
Tickets are free but need to be secured in advance of the screening via Eventbrite, see Tickets below.
