🏆 IPSCOL CC 1ST XI — PROMOTED TO DIVISION 5! 🏆

From Sunday League to Division 5. What a journey. 🚀

It has not always been easy. We missed promotion by just 5 points in 2023, then again by 15 points in 2025. There were rain-affected games, injuries, difficult moments and plenty of doubts.

But this team kept coming back.

This season began with setbacks, including being 56/6 while chasing 255. That fightback changed the mood of the team—and from there, the belief only grew.

A new plan. A stronger middle order. Win after win in the second round.

17 wins from 20 games.
352 points.
Promotion secured. 🔥

There have been some brilliant individual performances along the way, but this achievement belongs to every player who scored runs, took wickets, fielded their heart out and gave their time to IPSCOL every week.

A huge thank you to our supporters, families, club management and sponsors for the constant support and belief.

For the first time in IPSCOL CC history, our First XI will play in the Two Counties Championship Division 5.

Division 6, we don’t want to see you again. 😎

Division 5 — here we come! ❤️🏏
