Abbots Bromley Cricket Club

Founded in 1881, the Abbots Bromley Cricket Club now has their home at the Anglesey Ground off Swan Lane (by kind permission of the Abbots Bromley School for Girls).

During 2006 the Club celebrated the 125th anniversary of it’s formation with a "festival" week held in June.

The club provides opportunities for all ages to play and watch through a variety of teams.

• Kwik Cricket (under 12's): Practice on Saturday mornings with matches on Friday evenings.
• Under 15's: Practice on Monday evenings and play matches on Thursday evenings. 

From over 15's to 50+'s there are opportunities on:

• Saturdays:
  • First XI play in the Derbyshire and District Cricket League Division 7 South
  • Friendly XI play local "friendly" fixtures
• Sundays:
  • 1st XI: Lichfield League Division 2.

...and occasional mid-week matches.

Occasional friendly matches are arranged when the need arises. A new innovation in 2001 was the limited-over intra village competition.

New players, spectators and social members are always welcome, please contact one of the officers below.
