Welcome to Moorlands Cricket Club

Brief history:

The Club was formed in 1884 as Moorlands Methodist Church Cricket Club. It played in the Sunday School League, on a field owned by local Mill owner Sam Fenton. When The Dewsbury and District Cricket League was formed in 1911, Moorlands C.C. The Club played for many years on a sloping field on Church Lane, Dewsbury Moor.

When this was sold for housing it moved to a Corporation field at Sands Lane Dewsbury. This was home to the Club until 1986 when the Club moved to its present ground at Memorial Park Mirfield. The Club applied to join The Huddersfield Central Cricket League in 1987 and was accepted for the 1988 season. In 1996 work was started in preparing a Lottery Application and after much hard work a Grant of £75,000 was obtained. The total cost of the project being around £120,000. Work started at the end of the 1997 season and was completed in time for the beginning of the 1998 season. The Club can now boast some of the best facilities in the League. Over the years the Club has had mixed success on the field - in 1933, 1957 and 1983, The Second XI Cup was won - in 1935 and 1936 The Jessop Cup (section A) was won.

1991 was a particularly successful year, thanks in part to a successful Junior policy. The Armitage Cup was won by the U-17 XI, The Wakefield Cup and Divisional Championship were won by the newly formed Sunday XI. Facilities:
