Urchfont Village Cricket club

 

 

New Practice Nets

The new all-weather practice nets have proved a great success and were available for most of the summer – and will continue to be available throughout the winter. We were planning to hold an official opening ceremony to say thanks to all those who contributed to this new facility. Unfortunately this has not been possible, so we would like to take this opportunity to re-iterate our thanks to Wiltshire Council – Devizes Area Board, Urchfont Parish Council, the Urchfont Scarecrow Festival and QDOS Homes

Matches

Once the season finally got underway, there was great enthusiasm and the Club played 25 games, winning 17 of them. This was made possible by the grounds staff keeping the ground in excellent condition up to the time we could play, and during the playing period. Their effort was rewarded with some excellent team and individual performances.

Wiltshire County Juniors

During the Summer the club hosted several Wiltshire Junior inter-county games and practice sessions.

Women’s Cricket

The Club has now established a women’s section. Several well attended practice sessions were held on Monday evenings during August and September.
