About the club

We started in 1988 as 'Aural Sculpture'. We soon switched our name to Garden Cricket Club (c'mon the Flowers!), in recognition of our late President Doug Allum's back garden, where we learnt our cricket (six and out; four for hitting the terrace wall and two for the fence; watch out for the crazy muthas!) This was also the origin of the distinctive yellow flower logo that adorns our caps and everything else. We renamed ourselves Chigwell Cricket Club in 1998 when we decided to grow up.

Starting out at Ray Park in Woodford in 1988, we  played at Old Chigwellians in Chigwell between 1996 and 2019. From 2020 we are playing our home matches at The Paddock - headquarters of our close friends Fives & Heronians Cricket Club.It is a beautiful, secluded and quiet location for cricket, with a nice clubhouse and bar.

In 2008 we joined the Essex Sunday League, thus completing our long transition to, ahem, 'maturity'. Or so we thought. At the end of 2008, we left the Essex Sunday League and co-founded the Middlesex and Essex Invitation League with some like-minded clubs from, well, Middlesex and Essex. We won the League in its first four seasons and have come nowhere near since, except 2019, when we came (a distant) second.
