PUDSEY St LAWRENCE CRICKET CLUB
A warm welcome to the website of Pudsey St Lawrence Cricket Club, our clubhouse and ground are situated on Tofts Rd in the heart of Pudsey. The club has a long and rich heritage having been formed in 1845, In that time it has produced many outstanding teams and cricketers including 2 of Yorkshire and England's greatest players, Herbert Sutcliffe and Sir Leonard Hutton.
It is our aim to provide cricket opportunities for all ages, abilities, genders and race and to help all our cricketers reach their potential, as well as to provide a great social space for all the family to enjoy.
The club provides playing opportunities for boys and girls from the age 5 -18, as well as ladies and men’s teams. Our 1st & 2nd XIs compete in the premier divisions of the Bradford cricket league and play their home games at Tofts Rd, with our 3rd team playing in the Dales Council league at Fulneck school. We also enter teams in 20x20 and over 50s competitions.
We have an extensive junior development programme starting with an 8 week All Stars programme for 5-8 year old boys and girls, with boys teams starting at Under 9 and going through to Under 18. Our girls section also run under 11s & 15s teams. All our coaches and volunteers are fully qualified and vetted as part off our commitment to safeguarding in line with our Clubmark status.

Junior Cricket
One of the most important elements of the club is the development of young cricketers through our coaching programmes and Junior Saints teams for both boys and girls.
Our record of developing of young players from our junior ranks then promoting then into our senior teams is second to none, and provides a great source of pride for the club. We have also produced many representative cricketers, a number of whom have gone on to play county cricket.
Our Junior Saints programme starts with our All Stars sessions for boys and girls aged between 5-8 years of age, which takes place between May & June . Further details are on our dedicated All Stars webpage and a place can be booked each spring online.
Our Junior Saints boys teams start at U/9s and go through to 11s, 13s, 15s 18s. With our girls teams starting at U/11 and then U/15s. We host a number of signing on evenings every April before the season starts, so that new and existing parents can enrol their children through our family membership. However we are happy to introduce young cricketers to the game at any time, if you have a query then please just contact us through the clubs email address, or alternately ask one of our coaches or officials who will be more than happy to point you in the right direction.
