Captain Martin decides where to dispatch this delivery.

Captain Veater chopping on – much to his annoyance.

A very pleasant day at EHCC – with a fantastic tea.

Polly is confused. A Somerset hat and Gloucestershire jumper. Decides to hoik to leg – a Somerset shot surely?

Thomas Haydon Shows an impressive defence – a large stride isn’t necessary we are told.

Pre-Season Preparation

Thanks to all members who have worked so hard to get us up and running, ready for 2018. The ground looks fantastic. Thanks in particular to Tim Raisebeck, Steve Curtis, Father Hayne and Dan Raisebeck.

Quiz Night

Thanks to the team that organised the quiz night.

A well attended evening saw our lack of intellect cruelly exposed by Father Hayne’s use of Trivial Pursuit questions from 1982. Well done to the winners!

Temple Cloud is a friendly club situated within 10 miles of Bristol, Bath and Wells. We have two senior sides. Our First XI is captained by Kevin Curtis and is a proud member of the West of England Premier League, Somerset Division. Our Second XI is captained by Simon White. This XI plays in the Somerset Cricket League Division 6 (North).

Our Saturday fixture list takes us to some of the very best grounds in the county and our own, home ground on Stowey Road is a superb place to play. The wicket is flat and even and the outfield shows the benefit of being carefully tended by our dedicated grounds team.

Nets (using our grass pitches or excellent artificial surfaces) are very well attended on a Thursday evening and all new members are very welcome to come along. We have a bowling machine for those who really enjoy their practice.

Youth cricket has always played an important role at TCCC and most of our players have played for Youth XIs in seasons past. We are currently running coaching sessions for young cricketers – click the ‘Youth Section’ tab above for more information.

Our club is always on the lookout for new players of any age and with annual adult membership costing only £35 – it’s great value for money.

Contact details are on the Contact Us page or please feel free to come to the ground at Stowey Road; the bar is always open and the kettle is always on!
