Andover Cricket Club was established in 1865, with home games being played at the London Road ground for most the club's history. Still the club's headquarters today, and with over 250 adult and junior members. In 1973 the club became a founder member o

f the Hampshire League and played its first County Division One League fixture on May 12 1973 away at Hartley Witney, winning by 99 runs. Andover led the league early season but suffered 2 defeats against Portsmouth & Southsea on Aug 4 & New Milton on Aug 11. Despite taking maximum points against St Cross in the last match Andover finished 13 points adrift of New Milton. Andover were runners-up in 1974 and continued to have success through the late 19702 and early 1980s. In 1986, Andover were invited to join the Southern Premier League. Membership of the Southern Premier League lasted until 1994, when in controversial circumstances, Andover were relegated back to the Hampshire League. Following a period of rejuvenation the Club’s fortunes were restored at the end of 1997 season with promotion back to the Southern Premier League was achieved. Since then Andover have continued to perform well at the highest level. At the end of 1999 season Club cricket in Southern England was re-organised into three primary divisions: Gold, Silver, Bronze; when the Southern Premier League was born. The Hampshire League became four 'County' divisions, supplemented by ‘Regional’ divisions - East 1,2 & 3, West 1,2 & 3. Membership of the Southern League was offered to clubs based on achieving certain key accreditation criteria, including:-
Established colts section
Quality ground facilities and conditions

Andover were delighted to be invited to join the Gold Division and become a member of the top ten elite clubs in Central Southern England.

Time to say thank you and goodbye to Nyasha for the winter. Monumental on the pitch, a massive leader and personality off the pitch. We couldn't be luckier or happier to have him as part of the community. Thank you for everything you have given the club this season. We look forward to having you back next year.

🚨🏆🏆🏆Double Promotion🏆🏆🏆🚨

2s took their deserved crown as champions of their league. Monumental effort by the Jez army featuring a really exciting blend of experience and youth. They only lost once all season, playing good quality, positive cricket that was a pleasure to watch.

By the barest of margins, the 1s have also been promoted (by our maths) by on run rate, having tied on points with Portsmouth & Southsea. A remarkable run winning 7 of our last 9 has seen us rise from 9th in mid June to finish 2nd. An incredible run of form at the right time with everyone in the squad being a match winner at some point. Phenomenal.

Proud day for the club and a day to be proud of the people in the club. Here's to more and better next season.
