Quorn Cricket Club

Cricket Nets begin on the first Monday in February at the PEC on the Loughborough University Campus. They start at 7.00pm and last for an hour; the cost is £ 2.00.

We have switched from the nets at Quorn Rawlins as these were felt to be too dangerous. The climbing wall is unfortunately a dark grey colour and is not a suitable back drop for quick bowling. Whilst the change of venue will require a little more traveling the safer facilities are worth the extra effort.

We are also intending to hold fitness training sessions on a Wednesday. The venue and therefore time is yet to be confirmed.

We also play in the Thursday evening league. We need lots of players of all standards.

Quorn is a friendly local club. We do not pay any players. The first XI play a competitive level of cricket where much of the opposition will have an overseas professional. We prefer to find our own level with the people from Quorn and the surrounding villages who really want to play with us. Last season we were 6th in the first division of the County league. a good performance for our first year after promotion.

We really are desperate for some new young players. especially some young bowlers. One of our stalwarts wishes to play 2nd team cricket next year for all the right reasons. This has left a gap of about 14 overs a game that I need to fill. Any young fast bowler will get a good chance to bowl a lot of overs.

We would welcome new players young and old. We run 2 Saturday teams, 1 Sunday XI, two junior teams and Kwik Cricket. The contact numbers are as follows:
