Our thanks go the Club Historian Peter Edwards for his hard work in supplying this information. If anyone has anything they think may be of interest or importance to the history of the Club they should contact Peter. Please do so using the webmaster email.

The club has a long and established pedigree within the local area, steeped in history and tradition. However, the club has survived for over 200 years because of its policies, dedication, tenacity, its love of the game and its structured approach to the management of such an organisation. In more recent times the emphasis has been on youth, we now boast probably one of the youngest 1st XI’s in any local Senior League, certainly in terms of age, average age is approx. 24.

However, what they may lack in years they certainly make up for in cricketing experience, with over half of the side consisting of players who have ‘come up through the ranks’ so to speak. This proves that the youth policy laid down in the late 1970’s does work and we continue to put a lot of effort into this area of the club.
