About us

Horsforth Hall Park Cricket Club was established in 1890 and has been a founder member of the Airedale and Wharfedale Senior Cricket League since its reformation in 1936. The Club’s 1st XI currently play in Division 2 and the 2nd XI play in Division 5. We also have a 3rd XI and enter a team in the Headingley & District Twenty20 Evening League. The Club also runs U9, U11, U13 and U15 Junior sides.
Our junior section operates teams in the Airedale Junior League at under 9s, under 11s, under 13s and under 15s age groups. Practice sessions take place every Friday evening at 6.00pm from early April until the end of July, for girls and boys between the ages of 6 and 17 years old. The club have qualified Coaches at each age level, all of whom have been CRB checked. Matches for the under 9s  take place on Sunday mornings, with the under 11s and under 15s playing on Friday evenings. Although a few matches are scheduled for other days, in particular cup matches. The club always welcome new junior playing members, both boys and girls.
We hold a Junior Registration Evening, normally in March, prior to the start of each season. Details will appear on the website prior to the date each year. If you are unable to attend the registration evening and are still interested in your child playing cricket, then please feel free to pop down to the club on any junior practice evening. Should you require any further information prior to joining the club, then please don't hesitate to contact us.
Hall Park Ground in Horsforth, near Leeds, Yorkshire, England is a cricket ground. The ground was the location of a first-class cricket match in August 1885 which pitted Yorkshire CCC against MB Hawke's XI.[1]
The match was won by MB Hawke's XI by 3 wickets thanks to Australian Claude Rock who took 8 for 36 in Yorkshire's second innings.
Currently the Horsforth Hall Park Cricket Club play at this ground in the Airedale-Wharfedale Senior Cricket League.
