Blagdon CC

We are a friendly village club that play at the picturesque 'Bartons' in North Somerset. We field three senior teams, two on a Saturday and one on a Sunday, and also play 20 over cup matches and friendlies on a Wednesday evening. We are always on the look out for new players so if you are interested in joining us please send us an email and we'll provide you with all the information you need.

We have a thriving youth section. The fixtures and statistics for the youth teams are entered by the team managers themselves and can be found on our Play-Cricket site, which you can access by clicking the link below.

PETE BARRACLOUGH
It is with great sadness that the Club announces the passing of one of its oldest members Pete “Plum“ Barraclough. Plum's involvement with Blagdon spanned 50 years, including spells as Chairman, President and Trustee of the club. With a playing career of 34 years, featuring in 388 matches and taking 728 wickets, Plum remains one of Blagdon’s most successful bowlers and he was still playing in his 60’s which was an achievement itself. Plum was a gentle, generous man with a general passion for cricket and Blagdon Cricket Club in particular. The Club is hugely indebted for his lifetime of service, and we will all miss him greatly. We send our deepest condolences to the family at this poignant time.

BEV ASH
We are saddened to announce the death of former player Bev Ash. Bev played 264 matches for the club between 1958 and 1985 and predominantly opened the batting, scoring over 5000 runs and taking 268 wickets. Bev was also a regular player for Blagdon FC and as a centre forward his tally of goals made him one of the teams most successful strikers. Our thoughts are with his family at this difficult time.

NEW CLUB SIGN
Visitors to The Bartons this year will have noticed that there is a newly restored club sign next to the entrance. The restoration work was undertaken over the winter by Simon Payne, Shirley Payne and Alan Barwick. The club is extremely grateful to them and a picture of the three of them with the sign can be viewed here.

MEMBERSHIP APPLICATION FORM
We are requesting that all youth and senior players complete the membership application form that can be accessed here before the 2021 season starts. This is because we are trying to move away from a paper based system.

LIVE SCORES ARE AVAILABLE FOR ALL 1ST XI MATCHES
Our scorer uses the new Play-Cricket scoring program which enables over by over updates of the current match to appear online. To follow each 1st XI game just head to our Play-Cricket results page found here and select the current game.

CLUB SHOP IS OPEN
Don't forget that we have a club shop selling both playing and training kit which all display the club logo. The shop can be accessed here and size guides can be accessed here.
