Iver Heath Cricket Club was formed in 1947 by a bunch of alcoholics looking for something to do when the pubs used to shut on a Sunday afternoon. Sixty four years on and we’re still boozing!
We’re looking for new players to join our Sunday social cricket team.
Key requisites are:
- The ability to drink your own bodyweight in beer
- A photographic memory to recall outrageous umpiring decisions from years ago in order to bare long term grudges
- A sense of humour to enable you to take part in our sledging. Note: we never sledge the opposition, only our own players
- Cricketing ability would be nice too although not essential as we don’t want you showing any of us up!
We’re a friendly team who play our cricket hard but in the right spirit. The most important thing is everyone gets a game and has a good beer and a laugh afterwards.
We play our home games at the picturesque Farnham Royal ground which is between Beaconsfield and Slough and play on some of the nicest grounds in the Home Counties. Most of our players live in the West London area so can provide lifts if you don’t have a car.
Our season runs from mid April to the end of September with pre-season nets at the MCC Indoor School at Lord’s Cricket Ground.
So if you’re looking for a game of cricket on a Sunday and a few beers, drop us a line and we’ll sort something out.
