Welcome to Ashley

Ashley Cricket Club was founded in 1888, and is run as an inclusive club
to offer competitive sport for players of all ability. Set in the
picturesque village of
Ashley,
the club runs 5
senior teams and several junior teams from ages 9 to 15. All the senior teams
play within the Cheshire pyramid with the First and Second XIs currently in
the Mellor Braggins League and the Third and Fourth XIs in the Cheshire
League and we also have an academy team, focused on bringing our younger
players through to senior cricket, entered into the Cheshire Cricket Alliance.
We are committed to offering safe and inclusive environment to play cricket, with a particular focus on our younger players. This commitment is shown through our Clubmark accreditation. Click here to find our more.
The website is a starting point for everything related to the club. We try to record every match that is played at Ashley and they are all accessible. After each game the captains vie with each other to see who can outdo the others by producing a match report that will enlighten and entertain in equal measures. We are very proud of our the information we have collected in our History area of the website. Brian has also spent a considerable amount of time trawling through local archives to find match reports and interesting bits and bobs. Of particular interest is the summarised history of the club which was largely drawn from the fascinating history written by Geoff Turton in 1988.
As well as this site Ashley maintains a group on Facebook. Join this and you can take part in the lively debates or just enjoy the wit and and banter of your fellow club players and members.
Please remember, this is a family club and that young people will be reading our comments. It is everyone's responsibility to protect the wonderful reputation of this club by ensuring that all discussion is appropriate.
