General

Castor and Ailsworth Cricket Club is situated 5 miles west of central Peterborough.  It combines the advantages of an attractive rural village setting and competitive cricket to a high standard.  The ground is surrounded by trees and fields and is traffic free. 

Our fixture list offers cricket to suit virtually any standard of player and we are always keen to recruit new members in order to sustain this.
 
The ground is at the far end of Port Lane in Castor (opposite the Prince of Wales Public House). Our season runs from late April until late September. Weekend League matches generally start at 1.00pm or 1.30pm and 2.00pm and evening matches at 6.00pm.

The club organises a number of social events throughout the season. Details are available at the Clubhouse during the season.

The Saturday 2nd XI play in the Hunts County Bats Huntingdonshire League Division Four. Our objective is for this team to advance to enable it to offer greater support to the 1st XI. On Sundays we play in the Stylaprint Rutland League Division Six.
We are very keen to recruit good youngsters of 14 and upwards to introduce them to adult cricket. We have also been a vehicle for several older players to return to cricket after a lapse. All are welcome.

Midweek XI

We enter approximately 1st XI strength in the Jaidka Cup knockout. On Thursday evenings a team of mixed standard play in the Special Eyes Peterborough Midweek League.

Colts
(Co-ordinator: Mark Jacobs 01733 380483)

Over more than 30 years the colts have been the backbone around which the club has been built and many of our current 1st XI joined the club as colts. We currently run teams in the Hunts under-9, under-11, and under-15 competitions.

Boys of all ages are very welcome and we would also welcome adults who are willing to assist in either an administrative or a coaching capacity. Older colts should also refer to 2nd XI notes.
