Spectators are invited to enjoy the game and soak up the surroundings while indulging in some delicious beverages from the bar. Additionally, the Lower Beeding Lemurs Stoolball team takes to the field every Wednesday evening, and the Winter months see the Lower Beeding Junior Football Club in action on Saturday mornings.
