Welcome to
Boxmoor Cricket Club website.
Boxmoor Cricket Club is a long established “village club” in the town of Hemel Hempstead. In 2007 the club celebrated its 150th anniversay, having played all of its cricket at its current ground “The Oval”, St Johns Road, Boxmoor.
Boxmoor Cricket Club aims to provide safe, fair and enjoyable cricket for its members, young and old. The club hopes to provide an environment fit for the local community, in which players and social members can develop their cricketing skills, knowledge and friendships.
The club currently has a playing membership of around 40 adults and fields two teams in the Saracens Hertfordshire Cricket League (division 6 and 10) on Saturdays and on Sundays one team in the Chess Valley League and one friendly team.
There is an active junior section, with over 40 young cricketers learning the game under the supervision of 7 ECB qualified coaches
The club has its own pavilion which includes a lounge, bar and kitchen. The building is sublet on Tuesday and Thursday evenings to the Gade Valley Harriers and Dacorum Running clubs and is available for hire for private functions.
Boxmoor Cricket club is working towards ECB Club Mark status, joining a growing number of cricket clubs across England and Wales that are prioritising junior development, creating a benchmark for high quality community club cricket. To be awarded the mark, cricket clubs are required to present evidence and demonstrate implementation across four different themes, culminating in the production of a Club Development Plan.
The four themes are:
· Duty of Care and Safeguarding Children
· The Cricket Programme
· Sports Equity and Ethics
· Club Management
