Bass Rock Cricket Club

 

Welcome to Bass Rock Cricket Club

Bass Rock Cricket Club is a small and friendly club based in the seaside town of North Berwick, in the beautiful county of East Lothian, approximately 30 miles east of Edinburgh. The club plays a full season of midweek and Sunday fixtures against other local towns and villages in an East Lothian League, as well as playing in the Scottish small clubs cup and ad hoc friendlies against touring sides.

The club, which is a member of the Scottish Cricket Union, was formed six years ago in the nearby village of Gullane, well known for its golf courses - including Muirfield, a venue for The Open. The cricket club is now affiliated to North Berwick’s rugby club, giving it access to first-class parking, changing and refreshment facilities.

The club takes its name from the imposing Bass Rock, a small volcanic island that lies off North Berwick and which is home to some 70,000 gannets – one of the largest gannetries in the world. The club therefore plays on one of the most picturesque wickets in the country!

The Bass Rock club is always keen to hear from new players or anyone who would like to try the game. We offer a warm and friendly welcome, with a year-round social and playing calendar. Also, if you are a cricket club thinking of a tour to Scotland, do get in touch.

2005 Season

Welcome to another new cricket season with a full fixture list including East Lothian Village League (Whitekirk have disbanded but Musselburgh have filled their boots), Edinburgh Parks Cricket Association, 2005 Parks Trophy Cup competition and a number of "friendly" matches. There are a few free dates which may (or not) be filled in as we progress through the season.

It's again an ambitious programme and as always we are grateful for the support of both playing and non-playing members. If you know of anyone who might want to play for us, do please encourage them to get in touch.

Subscriptions are now due and your assistance in getting these in before the season starts would be gratefully appreciated. Remeber this covers cricket fees and full access to the clubhouse and bar. In addition this also covers your membership of the Rugby Club for season 2005/6.

Unlike many other clubs, we do not charge a match fee (except for Sixes and Cup competitions) and your subscription is therefore vital; both to your club's financial health and our ability to invest in it's future.

We are starting early this year with a warmup friendly match against Dunbar on Sunday 24th April (at Dunbar), commencing at 1 p.m. - everyone is welcome so please come along. This is rapidly followed by three tough league matches commencing on Tuesday 10th May at Haddington (6 p.m. start), then Stenton on Sunday 15th May (1 p.m. start) and finally Dunbar at Home on Thursday 19th May (6 p.m. start).


Many thanks for all your Support.

Yours Aye

Les.
