Welcome to Bledlow Ridge CC
The club fields 2 senior teams in the Cherwell League every Saturday throughout the season from the 6th May. Our first team play in div 3A and our 2nds in div 6A. The Cherwell is spread over 6 counties, so there is occasionally a bit of travelling to do, but the standard of the cricket, and in particular the pitches, is considerably higher than you might expect to find in some local leagues. Pre-season friendlies begin this year on April 22nd.
The club is always delighted to welcome new members. If you would like to speak to someone, feel free to call John Rolfe (club captain) on 07873 516568, Ian Murdoch (club secretary) on 07525 911894 or Paul Cheshire (membership secretary) on 07971 781805. or you can email us at imurdoch@isrconsulting.co.uk

Indoor nets in the winter
Indoor nets take place at Princes Risborough School at 5pm, starting Sunday 19th February (2023) and continue for 7 weeks. We have 4 lanes (including one with a bowling machine) so everyone will get a decent amount of time to bat. New players are welcome to join and although not absolutely necessary, it is helpful for planning if you can let us know you are coming by ringing one of the numbers above, or emailing here.
As well as competitive League Cricket, we play some regular Sunday friendlies and have a series of very social midweek Twenty/20 matches against local friends like Chinnor, High Wycombe and Princes Risborough rugby clubs, Heinz, The Boot and juniors dads, so whatever standard you have played, or even if you haven't played at all, we will have something for you take part in.
