SENIOR CRICKET

Our overarching aim is to provide competitive and enjoyable cricket for all abilities, ages and genders. In January 2020 we began a journey to progress the competitiveness of the club with the ambition for all league teams to strive for promotion, playing at the highest possible standard.

​

To achieve this we committed to ensuring all senior players have access to high quality coaching and training facilities to provide a pathway for their individual development and continue our long-term commitment to developing our home-grown talent within the senior section of the club.​

​

The club prides itself on offering cricket for all abilities, ages and genders. Outside of our competitive league teams we have friendly cricket options on Sundays and mid-week, if you'd like to join our family please do get in touch.
