Thurlow Cricket Club

Welcome to Thurlow Cricket Clubs home page

Thurlow cricket club has been playing village cricket for over 60 years although official statistics are only available from the middle 1980's. The village is located a couple of miles from Haverhill in Suffolk and local clubs in the area include; Horseheath, Castle Manor, Weston Colville, Withersfield, Barbraham and Haverhill. After playing years of friendly cricket Thurlow entered two leagues the Cambridgeshire League and The Adams Harrison Midweek League which they have been involved in for many years. The club has reached the heights of Division one midweek and Junior Division one in the Cambs league. Around 11 years ago after a successful youth policy started by John Robinson and Sean Peacock it was decided to give the juniors a chance to grow and the club entered a Sunday league now called Hunts County Bats League. Unfortunately due to many other commitments the club has now had to leave the Sunday league not before they managed to climb to the top of Divsion 1. With the Sunday finishing the Cambs league team have entered Cambs League Junior Cup for the first time in many years and have made it all the way to the final in the first season.

We like to think of ourselves as a friendly and welcoming club and are always on the lookout for new players either young or old of any standard.

The club is situated on the local recreation field in Thurlow, has a pavilion with changing facilties as well as showers and a nice bar for use before, during and after especially for the spectators. We have a net practice area that is two sepaarte nets on artifical mats. The ground is surrounded by trees and is a beautiful sight in the summer. A river runs down one side of the ground adds to the pleasure of playing there. There is even a play area for the kids just to one side of the playing area.

We have an existing website that you can find at www.freewebs.com/thurlowcc.
