Getting ready for the new season

A number of wonderful people have spent the last couple of months working hard to complete work on the 2nd phase of the facilities refurbishment.


This involved finishing the new changing rooms and creating an improved deck area for spectators and after match socialising. We hope everyone enjoys the new space, and the committee would like to send huge thanks to everyone who got involved. 

Phase 3 of the works will involve gutting the existing bar area to create a larger internal space with new toilet facilities. We hope to start this at the end of the cricket season, but we need to raise more money to pay for the work. 


We will be having a number of fund raising events through the season which will be advertised in due course, including a series of Saturday evening barbecues as we did last season. We'd love to see everyone at the events - come along in the afternoon to watch some the senior sides play, prior to staying for a beer and a burger. The more people who attend, the more money we make.

The barbecue dates set are (start time approx. 7.30pm depending on how the game goes):

Sat. 30th May
Sat. 4th July
Sat. 1st August
Sat. 5th September
Sunday 27th September (End of season barbecue)

A message from the Chairman


"The progress made at our ground over the last year or so is astonishing; come up and see for yourself now the weather is warming up. 

We now need to build (excuse the pun!} on this success and we can't do this without the help and support of our members. We need annual subs to be paid on time please, and your support at the Club's fund raising events is, frankly, essential. 

If you enjoy your cricket at HBBH CC, please help us continue the good work."
