About us

If you’re looking for a place to play cricket, then look no further! Even though cricket is played in the summer there is still plenty of action throughout the year. The club train all year with indoor nets being held every week.

We are a very open club and encourage as many people as possible to try the sport and come down to a net session.

Our first team play in the BUCS and LUSL leagues. As a club we are a good place to play cricket and socialise - we have socials every month but more frequently if we can.

Throughout the summer we try and organise as many friendlies as possible with local teams. This includes previously playing at ECB Premier division clubs with beautiful grounds. The aim of these friendlies is to get as many people as possible to play matches no matter what ability level you are. These connectons with clubs such as Englefield Green CC and Egham CC allow some of our members to play regular weekend fixtures with their teams.

Membership

In terms of membership we have 2 types plus the option to purchase our cricket kit:

Standard/ Competitive Membership - this covers all your indoor nets sessions throughout the year, all your travel costs, balls for BUCS and LUSL games and allows you to play in all the matches with umpires.
