Does anyone here play any cricket for a wandering club?

I’m playing for The Metronomes in a couple of weeks and reallylooking forward to it.

Loving the shirts and stash.

Never played for a wandering club, I'm guessing this means they always play away games?

I play for the XL Club occasionally... We get to play at some lovely grounds against good opposition teams which is lots of fun.

I like what they stand for. And the kit! Hoping they are just a down to earth bunch. Would be great to play at Gettys’s ground but for me it’s the people, not the places.

Some of the school grounds are incredibly impressive. Gordonstoun/Loretto/Strathallan all come to mind as stand outs.

I also turn out for the Forty Club

There has been some discussion on here about the general atmosphere in league cricket making the experience less enjoyable.  The atmosphere in Forty Club fixtures has been excellent as well as having the chance yo play at a number of next grounds. You recommend it to anyone who may be tempted to join
