Welcome to Ickwell Cricket Club
Welcome to the play-cricket web site of Ickwell Cricket Club. We 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 2012 season our 1st XI will be playing their Saturday cricket in Division 2 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 the Premier Division and the 2nd XI in Division 1. We are one of only two clubs in the county that have sides in the top two divisions. On Sundays we also have a youth side in the Development Division of the bedfordshire County League.
We play midweek league evening cricket in various cup competitions. These include the Bedford Hospital Cup, East Beds Charity Heritage Cup and Senior Shield.
We have a very active youth section with coaching on Monday evenings throughout the season. There are under-14 and under-16 youth teams in the Bedfordshire Youth Leagues. An under-12 side will play friendly games. This is all part of a club policy to encourage young players to play cricket.
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.
