Welcome to Ickwell Cricket Club

Welcome to the cricket web site of Ickwell Cricket Club. We are fortunate to play our games on one of the most picturesque village greens in the country. With this beautiful setting we have many spectators come to watch our games and the ground appears in many photographs.Cricket has been played on Ickwell Green for more than 125 years and it is famous for the 250 year old oak tree that stands in the outfield.

For the 2011 season our 1st XI will be playing their Saturday cricket for the first time in Division 1 of the Cambridgeshire & Huntingdonshire Tucker-Gardner Premier Cricket League. Our 2nd XI will play in Division 3 of the Huntingdonshire County Cricket League. On Sundays we play in the Bedfordshire County League with a 1st XI in Division 1, 2nd XI in Division 2 and a youth side in the Development Division. .

We also play midweek league cricket in the Bedford Midweek League and various cup competitions. These include the Bedford Hospital Cup, East Beds Charity Heritage Cup and Senior Shield.

There are under-14 and under-16 youth teams with youth coaching on Saturday mornings. Once again we will be running the Ickwell Cricket Summer School in the first week of August. This is all part of a club policy to encourage young players to join the club.

We always keen to welcome new players so if you would like to play challenging, competitive cricket please contact any of the team captains or the Cricket Secretary via the links on the About Us page.

The club also acts as a social centre for the village and organises various entertainments for club members. It has a well stocked bar open every evening of the year, also a golf, crib and dominoes section.
