A warm and friendly welcome from Badgers Cricket Club – a wandering cricket side who play only friendly cricket matches, mostly in the villages of Surrey – and who also enjoy a yearly three day tour (for many years to the Cotswolds, briefly to Dorset, for several years to Cheshire and more recently we have wandered in our touring too, taking in visits to Cheltenham, Taunton, Canterbury, Worcester and Milton Keynes). For more information about the club and this web site, take a peek at the about page.
The site continues to grow in scope, despite having made its first appearance twenty-five and a half years ago in March 2000, and in addition to up-to-the-minute results, summary scorecards, detailed scorecards, match reports and fixtures, you will also find more statistical information than you could shake a stick at (going all the way back to the club’s inaugural season in 1959), the Badgers ‘Honours Board’, a list of the current club officers and links to our social media ‘presence’.

PLEASE NOTE that we have had to cancel tomorrow’s game against Merstham as we were unable to field a side for the second time in three weeks.
I was hoping to upload the details of last weekend’s thrashing by Sanderstead but due to technical issues with Play-Cricket I cannot get the result uploaded and therefore I have not been able to complete the usual weely process. Since I have also been having problems getting the Saturday game on tour set up, because it was a scratch side and thus there are hoops that I have to jump through to create a fixture on Play-Cricket, things are in something of a mess. Fingers crossed I can get both problems resolved at some point in the next week, but I will not be able to investigate further until this coming Thursday.

Off on tour to Canterbury this weekend but still somewhat befuddled as to what sort of games we will be playing when. More to come after the fact.
A rare ‘home’ game against West Wimbledon at Woodmansterne on Sunday saw the Badgers canter to their fifth win of the season. The usual summarised details of the game can be found on the results page along with the detailed scorecard, and the traditional Badgers’ focused scorecard.

Darrell has found us a game for today, with West Wimbledon (formerly Bank of England) visiting Woodmansterne for one of the modern Badgers’ rare ‘home’ games.
A weather affected contest at Oxted, with the beer festival noise, absent after the organisers went bankrupt last year, replaced by thunder and some impressive flashes of lightning, saw the Badgers make a poor fist of chasing a revised total. The usual summarised details of the game can be found on the results page along with a statistical notes only match report, the detailed scorecard, and the traditional Badgers’ focused scorecard.

Quick last minute heads up, we are playing today but are at Master Park rather than Grub Street as on the fixtures page, starting at one o’clock.
The older What’s New entries are now held on separate pages, to keep this main page cleaner and smaller, and you can also navigate to them using the drop down menus at the top of the page (under Badgers’ Burrow).
