MORPETH CRICKET CLUB
Please see sections below for further information
We have invested in new facilities which will be started in May 2021. The new outdoor net facility will be among the best in the County.
We are also one of a few clubs who have two squares, one for seniors and U15s the other solely for juniors so there is room for everyone.
