Welcome to the Website of Cound Cricket Club which was founded around 1880 and situated in the Village of Cound which is six miles south east of Shrewsbury, Shropshire.

Cound who are an ECB Focus Club run two Saturday teams a Midweek team  plus  a thriving Junior Section. Cound First XI play in the First Division of the Shropshie Cricket League and the Second XI play in  the  Third  Division.

The  ground which must be one of the most picturesque in the whole of Shropshire has splendid views of the Wrekin and the rolling Shropshire Countryside.

No one is quite certain when the Club was formed but records show that there was a Cricket Club in  Cound  in the early 1880`s.The Cricket Pavilion still being used today was built in the  early 1900`s when the Club moved to the present ground.


Cound Cricket Club are very pleased to  announce that on 15th October 2008 they successfully achieved Sport England Clubmark Accreditation.

Clubmark is a Sport England initiative that  provides a  'kitemark' of  quality  for sports clubs. Its purpose is to identify  and  acknowledge  those clubs  that  have shown that they are properly  and  efficiently  managed, that they provide a safe environment for young players to learn and enjoy their sport, and that they have a high standard of equity and ethics towards all members.

 

Cound Cricket Club are also pleased to be part of the Cricket Foundations Chance to Shine  Initiative. Chance to Shine recognises the power of competitive cricket to help young people in State Schools acquire skills, values and attitudes. It is a campaign to enhance education, to promote aspiration, to encourage inclusion and to create cohesive communities.
