This site gives an overview of the club and shows some of our facilities and activities. You can also find links to our results, fixtures and league tables and useful contact names and phone numbers.
Men's Cricket
Whatever standard of cricket you play, there is a team to suit you at Old Bristolians Westbury.
1st XI, 2007
On Saturdays the Club usually turns out four men's teams. The top two teams in the Club play in the best league in the South West area: the West of England Premier Cricket League. The 1st XI will play the 2008 season in the Bristol and North Somerset division, with the 2nd XI in the corresponding league for 2nd XI teams.
The 3rd XI, ably led by Adam Henley, had a very successful 2007 season in the North Somerset Cricket League and won promotion to Division 1 for the first time in the club's history. The 4th XI also had a good set of results in North Somerset League Division 4 and only narrowly missed out in promotion.
2008 will see the welcome return of Sunday 2nd XI cricket after a break of several seasons. Paul Millward will be leading the newly formed side in Division 5 of the North Somerset Sunday Conference and would like to hear from players keen to play regular Sunday cricket next year.
Contact Us for more information or just turn up at Winter Nets after Christmas.
