Why join Earlswood Cricket Club?
If you're interested in cricket then Earlswood CC invite you to join our club. Regardless of previous cricketing experience or age our doors are always open to anyone with an interest in one of England's most popular summer sports.

Seniors
We currently have five adult teams playing on Saturdays in the Warwickshire League and Cotswold Hills League (CHL).

Our Sunday XI competes in the Arden Sunday League and we also play friendly fixtures against other local sides.

Juniors
We have a vibrant and healthy Junior section with an inclusive ethos offering a wide range of cricketing opportunities to both boys and girls (Aged 5-19).

Teams represent the Club in the Warwickshire, Worcestershire and Cotswold Hills Leagues as well as local festivals. We enter mixed sides at every year group from U9 to U19 and have girls teams at U11, U13, U15 and U17.

The Club provides a pathway for juniors (boys and girls) to play adult cricket from under 13. The majority of players in our senior teams have come through the ranks of the junior section at some stage.

Locations
The home of Earlswood Cricket Club is at our Watery Lane ground based on the edge of Earlswood close to Cheswick Green. In order to support the increasing demand for the cricket on offer at the club we also rent pitches at Henley-in-Arden, Warwick County Council Staff and Bournville.

Practice
We operate open senior and junior nets for both beginners and experienced players throughout the year. Non-members are welcome to come along anytime for a taster session.

Outdoor nets run from May to September with seniors on Thursday evenings and juniors on Friday evenings from 18:30.

Indoor winter sessions run from November to April at Solihull College on Blossomfield Road on Friday evenings from 18:00.

All junior training sessions are managed by our Head Coach with assistance from qualified coaches within the club and from our training partners Complete Cricket Coaching.

Social
We pride ourselves on being a sociable and community minded club. We have a licensed bar at Watery Lane which is open to members and guests whenever matches or coaching is on and in particular players and parents are welcome to wind-down for the weekend on a Friday evening. Quiz Nights and Barbecue evenings are popular events, and our end of season Presentation Evenings are the highlight of the year.

Technology
The club actively supports the use of social media and the club itself, along with various officials and members, regularly use Facebook and Twitter.

You can also download our FREE Mobile Club App, from the Apple iTunes Store or Google Play Store, which is a great source of club info.
