Holmesfield Cricket Club
HCC offer opportunities for players of all standards to come and enjoy cricket. Our senior teams play in the Derbyshire Leagues on Saturdays. We also field a midweek team and a Development Team on Sundays, ideal if you’re just starting or returning to cricket after a break.
The Ladies section run two teams, ‘Hardball’ for players with some experience, and ‘Softball’ for beginners or those who just want a more relaxing game. Both teams play 8 aside cricket so everyone gets to bat!
Junior teams range from U9s to U18s and play both ‘Softball’ and ‘Hardball’ cricket aimed at all levels of ability.
