Whitley Hall Cricket Club

t the original ground the previous year. Although an ambitious club, Whitley Hall is proud of its family tradition and welcoming atmosphere. Some of the highlights have been:

- The club won the Yorkshire Council Championship in 1999 and 2012
- Also won the League Championship in 2012
- We are the first club to retain the Black Sheep Champions of Champions Trophy winning it in both 2011 and 2012, in what is regarding as the highest honour in Yorkshire for a non-professional club. There is a thriving junior system with as mentioned above, junior teams as under 11’s, 13’s, 15’s, 17’s level. This success is passed from its open to everyone coaching sessions on a Thursday night which has brought through all the players within the junior sides and most of the players currently playing in the first and second teams at senior level. During the summer it’s not unusual to find up to 50 youngsters (both boys and girls) being coached by some of our current 1st XI players who volunteer their time to bring on the youngsters with coaching through the summer months. The club has partnerships with 14 local schools and has recently achieved ‘Club Mark’ Status and has a named child protection office.
