Bath Cricket Club

Bath Cricket Club

Brief Description of Organisation

In 2003 we became a registered charity geared towards giving back through cricket. Whether that’s through our outreach into local schools, supporting parents in the school holidays or launching an international career, we’re continually investing in the future of the community.

Full Description of Organisation

From our home in the heart of the historic city of Bath, we’ve spent the last 164 years building a sustainable cricket club for the whole community. Nurturing young talent and promoting the game across local schools and clubs, we’re committed to inspiring new passions in the next generation.

 

Today the Club has around 250 members (70 senior and 180 junior)  where regardless of ability, participation is encouraged to enjoy an acitive and healthy life on and off the pitch and hopefully engage and contribute to clubs many activities . Our team of coaches are committed to providing high quality winter and summer cricket programmes for all – from our entry level ECB All Stars  programme for children (52 in 2024) in school years 1-3 to our young players with aspirations to become full-time professional cricketers and of course our 'cricket for life' members who play for the love of the game!

ECB Dynamos (49 in 2024) allows junior players to make the leap to Hardball cricket to our Under 10's with a full fixture list of competitive league, cup and friendly matches to suit all ages and levels of ability. In total there are 9 age-group youth squads (U11, U13 and U15) for boys and girls and many of our young cricketers play at district and county level. 2023 welcomed the start of a fully structured and supported U19 team utilizing the enthusiasm of both players and parent volunteers to build a strong bridge into senior cricket.

 

A partnership started in 2001 with Somerset Wanderers Ladies Cricket Club, and this led to a merger which places the Club at the leading edge of female community cricket development who now particpate in the newly formed Women's West of England Premier League.

 

The West of England Premier League is also the platform for our mens 1st and 2nd Xi along with the National Club Championship and National Twenty20 Championship. We are proud and privileged to have won national and regional tites across the club over the last 49 years. 

 

The Club has extensive links and partnerships with local schools, other clubs and the county boards of Somerset, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire.

In 2003 we became a registered charity and as a charity, everything we do is geared towards giving back. Whether that’s through our outreach into local schools, or by providing a world-class platform to launch an international career, we’re continually investing in the future of the community we share. And in 2018, we received Clubmark Accreditation, in recognition of the safe, family-friendly environment we’ve created.

 

Thanks to the development of new student accommodation on site, 2022 laucned and exciting new chapter for Bath Cricket Club. This project allowed us to invest in an improved three lane indoor facility, across both our cricket grounds, as well as in new activities and programmes for the benefit of all.

 

We hope to expand our activities in the next five years to create a hub that can include a greater spread of the community and provide activities that encourage heathy and active lifestyles to assist with sustaining both body and mind and remaining social connected through out the year.
