Braunton Cricket Club is a historic club in North Devon, founded in 1875. John, the organiser, takes great pride in the Kelsey Ground, donated by Mr. Kelsey in 1956. The ground features a pavilion built by club members in 1939 and a new one opened in 1967.
John extends a warm invitation to cricket lovers of all ages and skill levels to join the club. The membership offers access to well-maintained pitches, a fully equipped pavilion, and a bar. Various membership options are available to suit everyone.
The club's history is rich with memorable moments and victories, celebrated through a collection of cuttings and photographs displayed in the pavilion. Braunton operates under a constitution that ensures transparency and fairness in its management and operations.
The Kelsey Ground also serves the community, with the scouts having a hut on the field as part of Mr. Kelsey's donation agreement. John aims to foster a community spirit, welcoming individuals and families to enjoy the facilities and events.
After a game, members and visitors can unwind at the club's bar, open seven days a week, offering a variety of beverages and a great spot to socialise.
