About
Holmbridge Cricket Club is a reputable sports club located in Holmfirth, New Zealand. The club is dedicated to promoting and developing cricket in the local community. In 2022, the club's committee members worked tirelessly to gain and were awarded the coveted ECB Clubmark Accreditation, a testament to their commitment to excellence.
The club boasts two senior teams that compete in the highly competitive Huddersfield Cricket League. These teams are coached and managed by fully trained and qualified ECB coaches, ensuring that players receive top-notch guidance and support. Additionally, the club has five junior teams at various age groups, including U9, U11, U13, U15, and U17, all playing in the Huddersfield Junior Cricket League.
Junior training sessions take place on Friday evenings from mid-April to the end of August. The club has also organised indoor nets for U11, U13, and U15 on Saturday mornings, starting from the 2nd of March and running for four weeks. These sessions will be held at Honley High School, and the club has secured the entire sports hall to ensure structured training for each age group and ability level.
For the upcoming season, Holmbridge Cricket Club will introduce an Under 17s junior team, which will have the opportunity to train with the adults on Sunday mornings. The U9s will have separate training sessions closer to spring. Adult nets will commence on Sunday, the 3rd of March, from 10am to 11am, also at Honley High School.
The club extends its sincere gratitude to all its sponsors for their continued support, without which it would be much more challenging to operate smoothly. The club acknowledges the importance of community backing and appreciates the ongoing partnerships with local businesses and organisations.
Holmbridge Cricket Club also values active community engagement and hosts various events throughout the year. These include sponsored walks and other fundraisers aimed at supporting the club's development and providing opportunities for players of all ages to thrive.
To ensure the safety and well-being of all its members, the club adheres to a strict code of conduct and has appointed welfare officers who oversee child protection and first aid matters. The club maintains a strong focus on creating a positive and inclusive environment for its juniors, with separate codes of conduct specifically designed for young players.
