1. Playing
The most obvious way of getting involved is playing cricket. We have extensive men’s, women’s and youth sections and we are always on the lookout for new players!
2. Officiating
The game of cricket doesn’t happen without Umpires and Scorers. Both umpiring and scoring are a fun way to stay involved in the game and be a part of the action. Whether you are ambitious and want to move up onto officiating panels or you want to keep involved in the game, we can help provide a friendly environment to learn, develop and most importantly, enjoy yourself.
3. Coaching
Oxford Cricket Club has a large number of exciting opportunities for coaches to work with our members. We have opportunities for coaches in all of our sections from the All-Stars Cricket programme for 5-9 year olds through to the senior set-ups. We are willing to support aspiring coaches in pursuing ECB qualifications and provide them with opportunities to hone their newly-acquired skillset.
4. Supporting
The club is thankful to all of it’s supporters. Supporting Oxford CC can be as simple as coming along for an hour to watch all the way through to volunteering with occasional tasks.
