New Developments
The last decade has seen major developments at the club, including the addition of a 4-bay net facility in 2006 and the relaying of the entire cricket square between 2007 and 2008, both funded by the ECB Community Club Development Fund. We now have one of the largest and best-kept grounds in the North West.

The 1st XI compete in the 1st division and our 2nd XI have returned to the 1st division after winning the 2nd division title in 2017.
