Cricket in Newquay
Mission statement:-
“Newquay Cricket Club strives to offer cricketing excellence for all standards in an enjoyable, safe and competitive environment”
As one of the top clubs in Cornwall, we offer cricket of a standard that will suit everybody – all players young and old with four senior Saturday league teams, a friendly XI for Sunday and midweek fixtures against other Cornish teams and touring sides visiting our lovely town, an up and coming ladies team and three junior groups.
For all other information, please contact one of the names below for the human touch or look through our site. We play at the Newquay Sports Centre which boasts excellent modern and fully compliant in- and outdoor sporting facilities as well as easy spectator and disabled access. We have two cricket squares, an all weather wicket, outdoor 3 lane practice nets, superb changing rooms and a sports bar. All prospective cricketers are welcome – regardless of ability! We are especially keen to encourage ladies to play cricket. All successful clubs need happy volunteers! Please view the Volunteers page to register your interest!
This year we start our senior fixtures with the first team playing their first fixture in Division 2 at St Erme on the 20th April and the seconds playing at the Sports Centre against on the same day. Weather permitting there is a pre-season friendly at Perranporth scheduled Saturday 13th.
ECB ALL STARS!!
Following last year’s introduction to All-Stars for the 5-7 year olds (and their family), we are supporting the programme for the 2019 season as one of our major development elements to introduce cricket and our club to a new generation! Main activator will be club stalwart and retired Head Teacher, Mike Jelbert. He is looking forward to a fun filled season for the little ones! More information and how to sign up is to be found using the following link – ECB All Stars – and will provide a fun-packed introduction for youngsters (and their family!) into the great game of cricket, a big part of our social fabric!
In another important departure we are delighted to welcome Newquay Town Council as our official Ball Sponsor. Providing a new cricket ball for each home game (and in the case of the top two teams each home and away game) is one of the major expenses of the club and eats into the money that could be spent on youth and building the community spirit so vital in today’s world.
As more people are becoming involved, Marcus is now the man to contact about friendly fixtures for the 2019 season.
