The Crown Inn "Pub" Cricket Club.
We, the members of The Crown CC, are an elite group of beer swilling athletes who, through the arts of the glorious game of Cricket, delight and thrill....well.....each other, with the raw and untamed talent that we showcase in our mid-week games of exhibition 20/20. These duels take place against some of the other fine pub cricketing specimens from pubs around the Stroud area. Our fortress is the Oakridge playing fields if you wish to come and feast on this sporting spectacle, home fixtures always on a Thursday evening.
If you too are a closet cricketer, whose professional chance has passed them by, then fear not The Crown CC is here to give you that last chance.
