About
Middleton Stoney Cricket Club has been part of Bicester in Oxfordshire for over 200 years. It's known for its friendly vibe and lovely grounds, attracting cricket lovers of all ages and skill levels.
Sunday cricket is the main focus at Middleton Stoney, providing a relaxed and open environment for all players. With more than 30 active members, ranging from under twenty to over seventy, the club caters to a diverse range of abilities. Unlike many other clubs, there's no league or limited-overs cricket, though they do enjoy the occasional midweek Twenty-20 match.
The club embraces players from all backgrounds. While they don't have a women’s team or specific changing facilities, they encourage women to join in the Sunday and Twenty-20 games. Everyone is welcome.
Player selection isn't just about skill; it's about sharing the game time fairly and ensuring competitive balance. The aim is to keep matches enjoyable and closely contested. After games, players and fans gather for tea – considered some of the best in the area – at the charming clubhouse or outdoor barbecue area.
Middleton Stoney isn’t just about the cricket. It's also a community where like-minded folks enjoy each other's company, both on and off the pitch. Throughout the year, various social events strengthen the bond among members and their families.
Newcomers are always welcome to try a few games and see if they fit in. The club also invites new teams and touring sides for some good cricketing fun. Whether you’re a skilled batsman, a talented bowler, or just a fan of the game, Middleton Stoney Cricket Club has a place for you.
