Hi Guys,

Just started using this forum and thought I'd give this a (No Swearing Please).

I'm 1ST XI captain of Dukinfield C.C. We play in the Greater Manchester Cricket League Division 1 and 2nd XI play in Division 3.
Standard of the league is very good. For example we were playing against Luke Procter and other Lancashire academy players. The league is classed as "open league" which basically means anyone can be paid to play.

We are looking for some new players to bolster our senior playing ranks.

The 2nd XI play in a strong league too playing against many 1st teams so we are all handy cricketers.

However, like many clubs we are suffering from a lack of interested juniors wanting to play senior cricket despite them receiving plenty of opportunities to develop. This leaves us rather short when it comes to the holiday period.

So anyone in the Tameside, Manchester, Stockport area looking for a well run club, filled with local players give me a shout and i'll give you some more info about training.

As I mentioned earlier our league is open where we play against many paid players but we only pay our Overseas Pro (Sri Lankan) and have an Overseas Amatuer paying his own way. We have worked hard to build a culture of local lads, who are all mates away from the pitch at Dukinfield playing for the love of the game and encourage you to come and get involved too.

Club address for the sat nav - SK16 4LP (Clarendon Street, Dukinfield) // Training Thursdays 6.30pm
