Kimble Cricket Club 1907 - to present.

Kimble Cricket Club was originally formed over one hundred years ago and the pitch to this day stands on Marsh Road in Little Kimble, or Smoky Row as its otherwise known.

2007 Was Kimble Cricket Clubs Centenary Year. In July of 2007 the Club held a Black Tie dinner and party at the clubhouse to mark the Centenary in style. The evening included not only a Grande marquee set up out on the outfield, but also there was plenty of music, food and wine included for all. We had a live Jazz band play at the event on through until the early hours of Sunday morning, before some of us had to get up again to make it back out onto the square... The event was a huge success and it was great to see so many KCC players of past and present united together to mark Kimble's finest Century.

Now sadly I'm not quite old enough to have seen the formation of the club or to have seen and recorded a lot of club history. Also of course in over one hundred years many players and club members have been and gone, and of course sadly many of them are no longer with us - this of course makes tracking down the club history hard. However throughout 2009 I will be compiling as much of the clubs history as I can, including photos, match results, trophy awards and other memorable dates and memories. So please check back here later on this year to find out some more about one hell of a great little village cricket club. Roll on another hundred years...

More Club History coming soon...
