Merstham Cricket Club is sad to announce the passing of long serving member Paul Ryder.
Our condolences are with Paul's family at this time.
It is not every day you open your inbox to find an email from the Marylebone CC inviting you and your cricket team to play at Lord’s. What an honour. We had less than four weeks’ notice to get time off work, fast track our new kit order and sort out what smart attire we were going to wear for access into the Pavilion and the famous Long Room!
On 17th May, the Marylebone CC hosted their annual Women’s Day at Lord’s cricket ground which is a celebration of Women’s cricket around the world. This year they wanted to focus on the incredible club cricket that is being played every day across the UK. Merstham Women were put forward by a Surrey County cricket administrator who advised that we had a ‘vibrant women’s softball team’ and of course won in 2022 and were runners up last year in the county softball champs.
An overcast sky welcomed the U12’s to The Ring where they were to face Salfords in the first league game of the 2024 season.
Winning the toss and electing to field, Will ‘Buckers’ Buckley set an aggressive field and threw the ball to Jack Tyte who set the tone for the innings, sending down 6 sharp deliveries and restricting the Salfords openers to 2 runs.
The club is pleased to announce the launch of our new digital membership cards.

Training cancelled due to wet weather making the ground too wet.
Sadly due to recent spate of wet weather, we have been unable to do a lot of the pre-season prep work so, sadly, we have had to cancel both Friday night training and the cricket matches due this weekend.
However, it would still be great if people could come along on Friday or Saturday to help with the remaining jobs shown here.
Don't forget our upcoming race night on the 23rd Feb.
All funds raised will go to help Aivin's recovery (more details).
Help us and our very own Alvin recover.
Alvin has already done so much on his road to recovery and is a true inspiration. This is the time for giving and, though it's very difficult times for all, can we please have a push, any donation is welcome to help Alvin reach his target.
To all members.
Notice is given that Merstham Cricket Club Annual General Meeting will be held on Sunday 14th January 2024 at The Pavilion, Quality Street. The meeting will start at 6pm.
