In the charity's own words
We have been a cricket club since 1868 and were awarded charity status to enable the club to expand and meet the wider demands of the local community. In addition to providing cricket opportunities for five junior teams, a ladies team and four senior teams we are now very much a community club used by local people for a wide range of functions as well as community groups.
