There’s been cricket in Chrishall since 1884, and today’s crop is as enthusiastic as ever.

We put out an XI most Sunday’s through the summer, prioritising participation above all else. Post mortems are held in the village pub after each match, and tales get taller as the sun gets lower.

Player, spectator, or passer by, you’ll find us welcoming. And if you pause for too long, you’ll find yourself opening the bowling.
