Our History
The cricket section was formed in 1950, playing on coconut matting on the rugby ground, then moving to a ground share with Victory Kidder CC in Arrowe Park. When the Holm Lane grounds were re-developed in 1970/71 a cricket square was made between the two new rugby pitches and was in use 2 years later.
Friendly games with one team were played until we joined the Wirral league in 1987, finishing the 1988 season as champions. 1990 saw the formation of a 2nd XI in the Wirral league. A 3rd XI was formed in 1994 and played in the Bromborough Paints Merseyside Cricket Competition.
From 1992-96 the club played in the North Cheshire league, 1997-99 in the Merseyside Cricket Competition, moving again in 2000 to the Meller Braggins Cheshire Cricket League.
Nowadays, we compete with a 1st XI and 2nd XI in The Cheshire Cricket League. We also run friendly teams midweek and on a Sunday. In addition, we have Dynamos, All Stars Cricket, U9s and U11s teams. We are also an ECB Clubmark accredited club.
