Fun, friendly, hassle free cricket in South Bristol 🏏

I'd like to introduce the Friendly Cricket Collective. We bring people together through casual cricket and offer flexible alternatives to traditional club cricket.

We started off with one game that brought the Victoria Park parent community together (in 2023) and we've enjoyed getting hundreds of busy Bristolians back into cricket since then.

During the winter we're running indoor nets, casual indoor games and tape ball cricket. All with an open invite.

You can enjoy your first session for FREE using the code TASTER when booking. Listings & link below 👇 https://fienta.com/o/28922

It's great to be working with Somerset Cricket Foundation & Bristol jamia Mosque to pilot the tape ball games this winter. These games are designed to be fun, friendly and nostalgic for South Asian communities.

Next tape ball game is Sunday Feb 1st at Merchants Academy. View booking link below 👇

If you like cricket but you're not sure where to start, or feel nervous about joining in.... Please message us. We're confident we can include all abilities and confidence levels. Especially if you haven't played for decades!

Thanks

The South Bristol Friendly Cricket Group is like a Battersea Dogs & Cats home for adults who like cricket but drifted away.

We're figuring out how to fit fun, friendly meaningful cricket into busy schedules.

If you haven't picked up a bat in years, but don't fancy joining a club.. get in touch. It'd be great to tell you more.

Tapeball / Indoor Friendlies 🏏

We're running some indoor tape ball friendlies between now and April. Some are for friendly side v friendly side. Others are run with an open invite and then we mix and match teams from available players on the day

If you're interested in either option, please reply here and we can discuss from there.

For context: the standard is pretty village. Most of us have only just got back playing again after years away from cricket.

So these games suit relaxed cricketers / teams who can buy into collective enjoyment and leave egos at the door.

Friendly Nets

We also run friendly nets sessions with an open invite for any casual cricketers to join in. Especially busy adults who've drifted away from the game but like the idea of some occasional, low commitment cricket and might be daunted by traditional club nets.

If you've got friends in this boat, please send them our way and reply here if you'd like to know more.

Thanks
Andy, Ben & Rachel 🙏

🏏 Are you an adult who likes cricket but doesn't currently play?

We’re on a mission to connect our city through casual cricket — which means cricket minus the stress, the formality, the scary fast bowlers and the commitment of clubs and leagues.

We're especially excited to introduce our South Bristol Friendly Cricket Group! Think of us as a bit like the Battersea Dogs & Cats Home… but for adults who like cricket but haven't played in years. 🐾🏏

Whether you haven't picked up a bat since school, you’re a complete beginner, or you just want a casual knockabout without the pressure of a formal league, we’ve got a spot for you. We’re all about community, shared enjoyment and having a laugh.

No trials, no judgment—just cricket.
