Richmond
Located in the heart of West London and established since
1973, VKS have, over the years, created a formidable
reputation for top class service and discount prices to all
those that visit their store or order online.
As one of the oldest cricket specialists in the country, VKS
are one of the UK’s largest cricket bat and equipment
stockists. Junior and senior players alike are greeted by
a team of in store experts that offer advice on a host of
cricket bats from all the leading brands with prices starting
from less than £35 to over £800. Juniors are sized up and
then shown a selection of suitable cricket bats, to help them
develop and enjoy their game. A tribute to their customer
service are the number of customers from the 70’s and
80’s who now, bring in not only their children but also their
grandchildren.
Since the start of the 2019 season, VKS have been the
appointed kit suppliers to Richmond CC. As one of the
largest cricket clubs in the south, supplying Richmond CC
is a matter of great pride to the team at VKS. Via the online
shop system as well as holding stocks in store, Richmond’s
members have been able to purchase all their training and
match clothing from stock and without having to wait for
days for their clothing to arrive.
By virtue of the VKS store in the heart of West London,
members have also been able to come in, try on and buy
all the range immediately, which is not the case with many
clubs who opt for the online only option, much to the
detriment of their members, who are unable to quickly go
in and buy last minute clothing on the way to a match and
furthermore are left guessing as to what size they will need,
when ordering online.
The focus for the team at VKS has always been providing in
the highest levels of customer service and value for money.
In stocking the latest cricket bats and equipment from all
the leading brand names, at discount prices, VKS are the
go to shop for cricket.
The various services offered by VKS include bat preparation,
refurbishing, servicing and rehandling. With quick
turnaround times, coupled with the highest standards of
workmanship, they are certainly a batsmen’s best friend.
45 years in the cricket business means their product
knowledge and sourcing experience is second to none.
Each customer is guided to every aspect of their purchase
as each person has a different budget and naturally
individual needs.
What makes VKS different from other specialists is their
multi-sport model. The tennis department boasts two full
time in store re-stringers and a host of rackets from all the
leading brands including Wilson, Babolat and Head. If its
tennis rackets you are looking for, then they have a large
range for toddlers to pro players. Whether it is a racket that
gives you all out power, control or a mix of both, the team
at VKS will be able to advise and guide you through the
