We are also a short walk from Wood Green Station on the Piccadilly Line. We are ideally sited fo the surrounding areas of Muswell Hill, Bounds Green, New Southgate, Haringey and Tottenham.
We are an open club welcoming members of all standards. We run 4 Saturday league sides and an occasional friendly team and two Sunday teams.
                                                      
The history of the club runs to over 100 years and were so well known pre and post second world war that Donald Bradman chose to film his book 'How to play cricket' at the ground during the Australian tour of 1934. The 'Don' wrote the forward for our centenary booklet.

The club is very social with a large football section too. We also have one of the longest running club tours in existence with 2011 set to be our 75th tour of Kent.

All new members are welcome to join so please get in touch. For more information on training please see News.
