The club was founded by journalists on the London Evening News in 1976 and now visits some of the most pleasant club and village grounds in the Home Counties. There are tours every year - to the Cotswolds in June, rural Derbyshire in early September, the delights of south-west France at the beginning of October, and other occasional destinations. All cricketers are welcome - you don’t have to be a journalist to join. Come and take a look inside...

Watford Town



Sunday September 27, 12 noon start

The club is at: Watford Leisure Centre, Woodside, Horseshoe Lane, Garston, Watford, Herts WD25 7HH.


From the M25:

Come off at junction 21 and then take the A405; turn right at the 2nd set of lights by the Harvester Restaurant on to Horseshoe Lane and then turn left into the Watford Leisure Centre and follow the road up to the top of the hill, see below.


From the M1:

Come off at junction 6. Take the A405 towards Watford. This may prove tricky; you may have to do a u-turn to go along the A405 in the right direction.

At a junction with traffic lights, there is a Harvester pub (Three Horseshoes) on your right and a Costcutter shop. Turn right at these lights, along Horseshoe Lane, and soon turn left into Watford Leisure Centre.

Drive through the centre and on up to the top of the hill. Go past the Indoor Bowls Club on your right. Carry on along the roadway up to the top. You swing to the right at the top and then face a sign which says Albans Wood and Sheepcot Lane to the left. Turn left here and on your left is a tall brick building with a Watford Town Cricket Club sign on it. Park here and walk through the gate.
