Attenborough Cricket Club play on the delightful village green in Attenborough, Nottinghamshire.

We have 4 Saturday league teams with the 1st XI playing in the Notts Premier League, the 2nd XI in SNCL Division B, the 3rd XI in SNCL Division D and the 4th XI in SNCL Division H.

We also have 2 Sunday sides; the 1st XI now play in the Newark Alliance Division 1 after winning the Division 2 league title last year (2022) and the Development XI play friendly matches against like-minded clubs from Nottinghamshire & surrounding counties.

The club first achieved Clubmark status in 2006, was last reaccredited in July 2022, and has a thriving junior section.

Our Women & Girls section AKA Attenborough Starlings, re-formed in 2019, currently have a soft ball team and they have taken part in the East Midland Softball League.

Our Clubhouse was completely rebuilt in 2013 and provides outstanding facilities for cricket and the local community.

A form to apply to be a Vice President of the Club is available for completion here.
