Methlick Cricket Club

On behalf of our President, Lady Aberdeen, and the members and players of Methlick CC, welcome to the start of another season of cricket in Methlick.

With only a few weeks until the action starts, Lairds will shortly start coming to life. Nets to be put up, seed to be sown and the first cuts of grass will shortly take place. You may have noticed the new scoring hut being built which is now ready. Winter nets for the juniors has been taking place every Sunday morning on the MUGA and has been so well attended (considering it’s outdoors and it’s Winter!) with an age group of 5 to 18. If any youngsters are interested in learning the game please feel free to come along at 1100.

For the adults we are looking at two friendlies in April including the Brigg’s Bowl, courtesy of ex- chairman Nigel Briggs, which is an inter-club opener and a very sociable affair with a barbecue post game at the Ythan View. The two teams play for a trophy and the honour of opening a nice bottle of malt donated by Nigel. This match  is open to anyone that wants to take part, regardless of ability, and is a great way to meet the members and players of MCC, and kicks of the cricket year for us.

The season proper begins 30th April with the fixtures yet to be confirmed. Practice traditionally starts when the clocks go forward at 6 pm on Wednesdays. We have two senior teams and the Juniors. We also run a badminton club and our latest venture ,MCCMCC, which is a hill walking section. The only rule here being that the walk has to finish at a pub.

As the year progresses I will keep you updated and events we organise and progress of the teams through match reports.

If anybody wants further information on the club and what we do please contact me on 07702 830464 or This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or speak to Jay at the Ythan View.

We look forward to a great year ahead and welcome anyone that wants to be involved in the friendliest club in the Shires.

Best wishes

Mark

Chairman

Welcome to Methlick Cricket Club for the 2024 season.

Mcc Logo

The Methlick Cricket Club welcomes all to our club. 

Our website will be updated with the list of games for the 1XI and the 2XI teams for 2024, this year finds both teams in the same grades the Firsts in Grade 2, and our Seconds in Grade 3. Considerable amount of hard work has gone in to preparing our ground "Lairds" for the new season, as with last season the weather has not been so favourable and the outfield proven to be very soft in parts. With great effort from members and friends the drains have all been cleared, and the ground is now in a much better state to play on.                

Situated in Methlick in the county of Aberdeenshire, our ground is one of the most picturesque grounds in the Aberdeenshire Grades Association (ACA), more details on our ground can be found in "About Us".

We strive to provide the highest possible standard of facilities to players and spectators of all ages and abilities, to play and watch the game and without bias and discrimination.

Currently, we have two teams that compete on Saturdays and Sundays the latter for Cup games, in the Aberdeenshire Cricket Association at Grade 2 & 3 respectively.

In previous years we have had junior training on Tuesday evenings and last year junior training on Sunday mornings, and it is our aim to continue once registration formalities have been completed, queries to our Youth Membership: Playing and Non-Playing contact below.
