Welcome to the website for Paddock CC

Situated close to the town of Huddersfield, in the rural heart of the Yorkshire Pennines, Paddock Cricket Club is one of the oldest and longest serving members of the Huddersfield District Cricket League.

The club has 2 senior teams who both compete in the 'Drakes' sponsored Huddersfield Cricket League; one of West Yorkshire’s strongest competitions. It combines local players, resuming age old rivalries each weekend, with many excellent overseas pro's, plus current and former County players. Alongside our senior teams we have 5 different Junior Age group teams with an aim in mind of providing cricket for all ages and abilities, both as a benefit for the Paddock community and as an investment for the future of the club.

Please take time out to visit our ground on match days. You will always be assured of a warm welcome, a fine cricket tea, and a well earned drink in our newly refurbished clubhouse bar. Whether you are playing or watching and if you are interested in joining our club, either as a player, or as a social member then just come along or contact us through the details on our site. All are Welcome and we look forward to seeing you soon.
