We are always looking for new members, who will receive a warm welcome. But why should you join Penn Street Cricket Club and not one of the other good local cricket sides? We only play friendlies, not League cricket. That means we have a more relaxed atmosphere on the field than League clubs.
2. That's not to say we aren't competitive. In our last full season we won 16 and lost 11 games, many of
these against local league opposition.
3. We welcome players of all ages and abilities. Anyone willing to be involved in the club will get a game.
4. We play Saturdays and Sundays from mid-April until the end of September. You are free to pick and choose how often - or how seldom - you want to play.
5. Our ground is one of the prettiest in South Bucks, opposite the Squirrel pub and Penn Woods.
6. We have a lively Junior section, the Squirrels, on Wednesday evenings
7. Every year we go on tour to Worcester, and in 2012 we went to South Africa, 2016 Sri Lanka and 2020 Barbados.
9. We have an active social calendar off the field, with annual trip to Lords, Dinner Dance, quizzes, horse-racing evenings etc
10. We have been described as "The little club with the big heart". We raised over £100,000 for Lords Taverners and local charities through Charity Cricket matches between 1983 and 2000. We raised £10,000 for RBL on our Charity Bike Ride (100 Not Out (of mind)) in 2014 and a further £10,000 for The Foundation of Goodness in Sri Lanka in 2016.

We look forward to hearing from you
