— The Association

Custodians of
family cricket

Every decision the league makes on the pitch — from the points system to how a disputed wicket is settled — is governed here. Win or lose, the family plays the same fair game.

Founded in 2024 alongside the league it governs — which began as a small family cricket event — the Association now maintains the rulebook, the code of conduct, the safeguarding framework and the officiating standards behind a full season of fixtures, cup competitions and a presentation night.
