Playing for Whitchurch-on-Thames CC

We field two weekend teams, one on Saturday and one Sunday side drawn from one squad of about 50 players.  Some players are regular, some occasional.  We're a diverse lot, ranging in age from 14 to about 60; some players are drawn from Whitchurch itself, others from the local area and several commuting players from London, Hampshire and further afield.

We play friendly matches against local clubs and touring sides and usually go on tour ourselves.  Most games are 35 or 40-over matches, though we do play some "time" games for a change.  If you'd like an enjoyable game of cricket, email us at joinus@whitchurchcricket.co.uk, come down to the club one afternoon when we have a fixture, or call Dave Mattimoe, the club secretary on  0118 984 3347.

Spectating

We're delighted to welcome spectators to our cricket matches. The scenery's beautiful, the atmosphere's relaxed and the cricket's usually entertaining. We often have families enjoying a picnic in front of the pavilion and children can often use the nets for a knockabout.
