Our volunteers make the club and enormous thanks go to everyone that has helped make Kibworth Cricket Club the best place to play, learn and watch cricket.
The club remains open through the winter, every Friday night from 5pm and we hope to bring in street food vendors to offer some great options for the village. We will also be hosting kids Halloween and Christmas parties. Please do keep an eye on social media for the latest goings on at Kibworth Cricket Club.
