Burnley are one of the most illustrious cricket clubs in Lancashire League history. With fourteen title wins and EIGHT Worsley Cup triumphs, Burnley are one of the teams to beat!

A strong youth policy has seen the club continuously producing young players who progress to play cricket at a higher level. In recent years, Michael Brown (Hampshire, Middlesex and Surrey), David Brown (Gloucestershire), Jonathan Clare (Derbyshire) and of course James Anderson (Lancashire and England), have all excelled in First Class Cricket. All these players were products of Burnley Cricket Club’s youth system and worked their way up to Burnley’s 1st XI. The Club is extremely proud of these players’ achievements and wishes them all continued success.

In demonstrating its commitment to youth cricket, the Club hosts the County’s Junior teams at various levels and the Lancashire County Under 11s trials. Burnley’s youth policy gained the club the coveted title of an ECB Focus Club. This, and the expertise of our Groundsman, has created a pitch which the players, both professional and amateur, in the Lancashire League look forward to playing on.
