“In 2020, Bromley Cricket Club
is 200 years old and therefore our
primary focus is to get the 1st and
2nd XI teams promoted into their
respective Premier Divisions, after a
period of consolidation we believe it
is now time to kick on. Our 3rd and
4th XIs are providing wonderful
experiences of competitive
league cricket and we
remain competitive in
each division; junior
players are now playing
a lead role in these
teams as well.”

“Our junior players are well cared
for, we have introduced under 18, 19
and 21 teams to introduce players in
to the advanced junior age groups;
this has proven to be tremendously
successful in terms of widening the
experiences of players and in the
process meeting other members
of the club. Our 3rd and 4th XI
captains remain a key point
in player development,
we welcome them into
the adult teams with

their performances.”

“Our Junior cricket
programme
remains
our focal point of the
club structure. Five years
ago, we collectively took
the view that if the club was
to succeed we would need

and transition them in to our adult
teams. We were delighted that two
fifteen-year-olds represented the 1st
XI in 2018 and we believe there will
be many more to come.
Our plan is that at some point in
the future we will have a 1st XI made
up from former Bromley CC colts,
we believe this a real possibility. We
have over 220 junior players, ages

This is something that remains high
priority for the cricket section, we
have developed a reputation for
quality within the local area and
remain focused on driving this part
of the section.”
“We are absolutely
a community club, we
are continually looking
for ways to work with
local schools to provide
positive experiences of
sport, this has been a hugely
influential in the development
of the wider club. The summer
months are an opportunity to provide
everyone with a positive and healthy
lifestyle, as a multi-sports club we
can support a wide range of athletic
experiences.
We welcome new
members and local businesses to
work with us to develop a club which
is capable of providing a supportive
and enjoyable environment.”
