Title: South Yorkshire/North Derbyshire Cricketers
Post by: bigbenh99 on March 31, 2012, 12:19:49 PM: I've recently started playing again in Sheffield, having moved here a few years ago. Does anyone know of any good cricket shops in the South Yorks/North Derbyshire area? I'm wary of buying online as I like to get a feel for my kit, so would like to go into a shop.

Cheers

There's only one cricket store that i know of in Sheffield itself called sheaf sports but I've never been, I think they do a discount if you play at a local team.

Who are you playing for?
