Would people recommend this place or Dotball for nets in Sheffield? Any pros and cons for each? Me and a couple of mates might be passing through Sheffield in the coming weeks and were thinking of going for a net whilst we're there, just one lane obviously, ideally with a bowling machine.

Went to the indoor cricket centre last week. Couldn't fault it and an hr with a bowling machine for £17 seems reasonable

Yeah £17 including the machine sounds reasonable to me, does anyone have a rough idea what Dotball costs per hour? Doesn't say on their website.

It was £18 per hour for both lane and machine (if used on the shorter lanes). Price correct as of Nov 2015.

Sheffield cricket centre



Dotball




I prefer dotball as its closer....... Both are a tad to bouncey, but apart from that decent places run by decent guys.

Thanks for that Smilley, top bloke. Think I'll just see which ones easier to get to on the way back north from B3 and go to that one, they both look pretty decent.
