Welcome To Littleborough Cricket Club
Littleborough Cricket & Sports Club has been in existence since 1839 and today remains a central part of our beautiful village.
The stunning backdrop of the Pennines can be enjoyed whether participating in sport, spectating or holding a function which makes the facilities at Hare Hill unique.
Cricket is Back!
Yes, it’s true…. cricket is back at Hare Hill and we have a few friendly games scheduled. The fixture list will be updated as games are arranged.
Re-opening – 4th July 2020
Your management committee have decided to open the main bar & Jonathan Whitworth Lounge from the 4th July.
In line with the rest of the hospitality industry we await government guidance on numbers that we can accommodate which we are assured will be available early next week.
Understandably at this time we cannot be sure of the volume of people who will visit us next weekend and therefore we are giving members the option to book a table in advance. Bookings can be made for 1 hour slots upwards and the intention is for members to be seated in the Lounge.
Tables of 4 can be booked in line with social distance and family bubble directives.
Please contact Mark Whiteley (07810 837671) to reserve a place.
Read the letter from our chairman to see how you can still support your club!
Stay safe and look after each other.
