Hi Chaps

I have recently moved down south to start a new job and I am therefore looking for a cricket club in the local area to play for. Before getting in contact with a few clubs myself i thought i'd see if anyone on here plays / has played for a club in the area.

Unfortunately my new position means that I will be working on Saturdays so it would need to have a Sunday and/or midweek side.

I live in Windsor at the moment so just as local as possible really, I must admit i don't know the area particularly well so any recommendations welcomed.

James

Egham, Englefield Green, Staines & Laleham, Ascot, Wraysbury, Chertsey. All half-decent clubs with Sunday sides.

If you choose Windsor themselves you are just across a road from the castle if I remember correctly

The TVL is your oyster! Plenty of decent clubs. You can afford to be a bit fussy and Windsor might not be the best setup for you. For example in not sure how much they can cover there tracks, being public land. My old club Marlow has a great setup and less than 30 mins drive but so are alot of clubs. Scan down the TVL website and feel free to ask me mine or manormanic thoughts.

Hello all

Could someone comment on the strength of the TVL versus the Chiltern League?
I've played a couple season div 5 in TVL and found it pretty easygoing. Just wondering if I should stay in touch and join a club in a higher doc or move to chiltern league.

Thanks

Children league is way below tvl! If you play div 5 tvl you could easily play that level. Best bet is to move up a div or two. Div3 TVL was a significant jump up from 5/4.

Thanks. Do you mean play div 1of chiltern league? wow, that would be a drop!?

[uknsaunders]

Not played div 1 chiltern league myself but I'm pretty sure the top divisions of the tvl are a higher level. The Chilterns league is effectively a village league and the tvl is the dominant club level league in the area.

And if I remember correctly TVL feeds directly into Home Counties PL, so is probably a higher level

Yes it does. One week in tvl 4, next week HC Western Feeder!. Cherwell and TVL feed into HC Div2 now the Herts League has pulled out.
