Band of Brothers

When the Band of Brothers was founded in 1858 Queen Victoria had only been twenty-one years on the throne. Into this age was born 'The Brethren', the third oldest of the succession of 'wandering' clubs which followed the pattern set by I Zingari (1845) and the Free Foresters (1856), but differing from most of them in requiring both a territorial allegiance to Kent. With colours of black and Kentish grey, B.B. cricket has since ridden the changes triumphantly and enters the 21st century with the same happy features which gave it birth.
