ELLAND CC

As with many sports clubs, Elland Cricket Club has long history. It started out as a Sunday School team; there is some dispute as to the year - but a cricket historian based at Huddersfield University, puts it as early as 1861... Elland Cricket, Athletic and Bowling Club was founded in 1870 and is ideally located between Halifax and Huddersfield in West Yorkshire. The club boasts outstanding Cricket, Football, Bowling and Tennis facilities and is made up from a number of sporting sections. The sports facilities are superbly maintained throughout the year by a full time groundsman, David Fletcher. David received awards in 2003 for the quality of the Cricket field and the Bowling greens... Elland Cricket Athletic and Bowling Club is one of the largest and oldest cricket clubs in the area.
