Organised by Marshfield Cricket ClubQuite simply we need a new pavilion. It's not a vanity project! Replacing the 50 year old pavilion with a facility to match the club of today and the ambitions of tomorrow. It's vitally important to this growing and active community club.
Marshfield Cricket Club has been a cornerstone of the local community for over 100 years - offering cricket and social opportunities for men, women, boys and girls. Whether it is being the start of someone's love for cricket or attending one of the many community events, it as the cricket club that village life really does matter.
On the field there is cricket for all ages and abilities. We have one of the largest youth cricket sections in the south west with around 200 boys and girls aged between 6 and 18 registered; and we deliver a wide range of accredited cricket coaching programmes. Our senior sides have been successful both regionally and nationally. Currently the First XI play in our highest ever league standard and our women and girls sections has been the fastest growing area of the club, offering both indoor and outdoor cricket.
Our proactive and positive reputation has spread across the region. This is thanks to a number of factors - our thriving youth section; our large number of qualified coaches; our wide range of social events; and our well-known (and much envied) cricket teas!
However.....constructed in 1969, the existing pavilion is no longer fit for purpose - indeed, each summer we are thankful it is still standing! The timber structure has no thermal capacity and poor, undersized facilities that now fail to meet the ECB requirements. The new designs aim to bring the facility up to speed, making it suitable for hosting both the increased quantiy and standard of cricket, as well as the growing demand for wider community events.
