OUR CLUB

Brockenhurst Cricket Club was founded over 225 years ago with the beautiful setting of Balmer Lawn playing host to the club for over 150 years.

The club is accessible to everyone, whether it is accompanying your children as they take part in cricket, having a go at playing yourself, or joining as a social member to support our 1st, 2nd and Friendly teams.

The club is run by volunteer members for the benefit of the whole community. Over the last few years, we have grown considerably and now have a fantastic squad of children and adults playing cricket at Brockenhurst.

Steeped in history...

Brockenhurst Cricket Club ‘s first documented matches were against Southampton and then Portsmouth in 1797. The opening batsman was Edward Morant, whose Grandfather had purchased Brockenhurst Park Estate in 1770. Edward played three first class matches himself and later his son went on to open the batting for Hampshire in the 1840s. The Morant family continued to be involved with Brockenhurst Cricket Club for  the next 150 years.

1935 was a trophy winning season for captain Jack Blackwell and the team which included three Waterman brothers as well as Jack Hull . Jack played for the club for 50 consecutive years and was also the Club’s groundsman. He passed on the responsibilities of  to his son Geoff, who also played, until 2017.
