We are delighted to confirm that following discussions over the winter months and a conclusive EGM vote, Horrington CC will be merging with Wells CC ahead of the 2023 season.

This merger will create a sustainable future for the sport in the villages and the wider community.

This page will now become inactive and unmonitored. To stay up to date with all the latest news from the new club, please follow Wells and Horrington Cricket Club.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all players, villagers and sponsors for their immense support of the club over the years, as well as the army of volunteers who have kept the club running.

We hope to count on your continued support as we enter this exciting new era.

A huge thank you to everyone who came and supported the Martin Coppell Memorial Day yesterday.

We are delighted to confirm that over £1,000 was raised for the fantastic St. Margaret's Somerset Hospice.

Fittingly, Steve Coppell led his Invitational XI to victory in the match - scoring a fine 63 to help chase down a total of 140 set by the joint Horrington & Wookey Hole team.

A huge thank you goes to the Coppell family, Andy Bratton, Paul Banwell and Steve Lewis for their efforts in organising and running the event!

A full weekend of cricket for Horry this weekend, with 11 players fielded both days 🙌

On Saturday, we travelled down to Staplegrove Cricket Club and hit 291 off our 40 overs - including what was almost a club record opening stand of 195 between Coxy (118) and Pards (74). The win was completed as we bowled the hosts out for 206.

On Sunday, we hosted The Travellers for a friendly, with a team featuring three players under the age of 15 and one bloke who had never played cricket before. Our visitors hit 260 off their 40 (big shout out to youngsters Harry Hodge and Ollie Purchase for their bowling and keeping respectively), before we got bowled out for….. 31 😅

A busy week upcoming with a visit to Axbridge for s T20 on Wednesday, before we host Leigh-on-Mendip in the league on Saturday 🏏
