What kind of club is Blackheath Cricket Club? Here is a brief description of the facilities and general ethos that you will find here

Although originally a typical village cricket club (see the History page for more details) Blackheath has evolved over the last 30 years into a club that offers a much broader range of activities, from friendly village cricket on Sundays to serious league cricket on Saturdays to prestige midweek fixtures.

Cricket

On Saturdays
The 1st XI currently plays in the I'Anson Division III
.  The 2nd XI plays in the I'Anson Division V.

On Sundays
We also run a regular Sunday XI which plays every Sunday against other village teams in the area. This team welcomes players of ALL standards, although a strong drinking arm usually comes in useful.

In addition to all this we also have a programme of midweek cricket throughout July and August, in particular our annual Cricket Week. These matches are often against prestige teams such as MCC and Australian Crusaders. 

Colts

We have a large and thriving colts section, with teams competing in the West Surrey Youth Cricket League at U15, U13, U11, U10 and U9 levels, as well as playing numerous friendly matches. We welcome children of all ages from 6 to 15, irrespective of ability or experience. Our main practice night is on Friday evenings, which is a lively social occasion for all the family, with a bar and barbecue.

Social

Blackheath is such a beautiful spot that it's ideal for occasional BBQs, etc. and many of our non-playing members visit us on Saturday and Sunday evenings for a quiet drink while watching the last few overs of the game.
