About The Washington Cricket Club
The Washington CC was established in 1973 - and here we are at 50. It's been a long journey for the club and we're splashing out on a big dinner in July to celebrate. After all these years, we still play good quality non-league cricket for a wide range of abilities at great venues all around London. Every year we train pre-season at Lords and travel abroad for an end of season tour. Our home ground is at Hornsey CC in Crouch End. Interested in joining our club? The Washington Cricket Club is the best Social Cricket Club in London Our spiritual home is at The Washington Pub in Belsize Park. It was at this very pub that the club was founded and is the place where you can often find us after matches and for our regular committee meetings. We have regular social events which you can discover more on through our club news page. The Washington 'On Tour' At the end of each season, we like to travel abroad for a long weekend to play friendly games against like-minded oppositions in still warm end of season climates. In 2022 we jetted off to Malta. This is a fantastic place to tour and we were not disappointed as there was plenty of good weather about and the hospitality from our hosts was fantastic. And since we are the best social cricket club in London... we always have and indeed this time did have wives, partners and children come along. |
