🏏 BUILDING FOR THE NEXT 175 YEARS
As we celebrate 175 years of Waringstown Cricket Club, we’re also looking firmly to the future.
Plans for our new Indoor Cricket Centre are progressing, with the facility scheduled to open in April 2027.

Thanks to the tremendous generosity of our members and supporters, together with grant funding and Gift Aid, we have made significant progress towards funding this exciting project.

There is still more to do, and further support our members and friends of the Club are able to give would be greatly appreciated.

Sam Matthews’ men wrapped up their 2026 campaign this weekend with a pair of determined displays - one on Friday night against Armagh, and another this evening at The Lawn against Victoria.

🔹 Friday vs Armagh

Waringstown fell to the J11C champions, but not without a fight. A superb 8th‑wicket partnership of 74 between Peter Hanna and Max Hanna lifted the side to 130–7, giving the innings real substance after early pressure.

With Armagh boasting a strong batting lineup, wickets were hard to come by - though Andy Beattie (2–24) was the unlikely wicket taker! Armagh ultimately chased down the target with their depth showing.

🔹 Monday vs Victoria

Victoria started brightly but faded as Waringstown’s bowlers tightened the screws, finishing on 115–7.
The pick of the attack were Nihal McEvoy 2–17, Sulaiman Arfan a very tidy 0–14 and Charlie Boyce 3–23, striking at key moments

In reply, Waringstown were anchored by a superb 81‑run partnership between Max Hanna (30) and Jamie Matthews, whose composed 53* guided the chase home with eight balls to spare.

Friday’s match between a Waringstown XI and an NCU Presidents XI was never about the result, it was about marking the 175th anniversary of the club in a fitting manner.

The occasion certainly delivered, with a healthy crowd at The Lawn lapping up an entertaining game which featured many of the stars of the club over the last 25 years.

This period has been among the most successful in the club’s history, particularly starting from 2011 onwards when Waringstown began to end North Down’s long domination of NCU silverware.

Since 2011 onwards, we have won four Irish cups, appearing in five consecutive finals, six Premier League titles, five NCU Challenge cups and five Lagan Valley T20 cups.

All of those who started in the Waringstown XI on Friday played significant roles on the field during the last quarter of a century.

Batting first, the Waringstown XI, up against opponents who are still playing cricket at a senior level, posted 126 for five in their 20 overs. The club’s all-time leading run-scorer, James Hall, contributed 24, Andrew Cousins 29 at exactly a run-a-ball and then Simon Harrison struck an unbeaten 21 from just 11 balls to give the innings a late flourish.

Our former player Aaron Kennedy, now of Donacloney Mill, claimed 2–15 while Stephen Johnston of Lurgan took 2-22.

In reply Sam Wilson now of Armagh, top scored for the Presidents XI with 38 retired from just 27 balls and Johnston saw the visitors’ home with nine balls to spare with an unbeaten 23.

Kyle McCallan, Gary Kidd and James Hall all took a wicket apiece.

The Waringstown players all really enjoyed the occasion, even if there were some sore limbs the following day!
