Sudbourne Hall Cricket Club

Welcome to Sudbourne Hall CC

Sudbourne Hall Cricket Club is a community club based at Sudbourne Park, Suffolk about 1 mile from Orford.

Established in 1893, the club is fortunate to play at what has been described as one of the loveliest grounds in Suffolk, we run a Saturday league team and provide junior coaching through the ECB All Stars and Dynamos programme. We are also keen to recruit new players whether that be for the Saturday side, Ladies cricket or midweek T20 fun matches. Come along and enjoy the facilities and the beautiful surroundings.

2024 Season

The 2024 season promises more exciting developments at The Hall, with a brand new Club Captain, T20 Captain and lawnmower, this season sees us launch a Ladies campaign and an evening T20 competition. The junior coaching under the All Stars and Dynamos continues and we look forward to welcoming more junior members to the game. If you are a cricket fan or just love sitting in the sun watching other people run about then please make your way down to the ground. We look forward to meeting you. New playing members are, of course, always welcome.
