Yorkshire Badgers CC

Friendly nomadic cricket club based in West Yorkshire. Here for a good time, not a long time. New players welcome of all standards and backgrounds.

Sooo….. it’s been a while hasn’t it. Due to some off field issues we considered closing the club down but we are back with a bang. New players recruited and new plans in the works. The badgers are out of their set for 2026.

@tmills15 If you’re offering these out then I’d love to take a pair. One of our lads has been struggling to get spikes in his size that aren’t ludicrously expensive. Please drop us a DM if you’d be open to donating a pair!

@PeoplesCricket @AnsonStGeorge @AnnieChave @TimGardiner3 @TheMetronomesCC @savevcricket Oh absolutely, you don’t get a physique like mine without prioritising cricket teas!

[Yorkshire Badgers CC @CcBadgers]

@PeoplesCricket @AnsonStGeorge @AnnieChave @TimGardiner3 @TheMetronomesCC @savevcricket Thankfully the responsibilities don’t extend much further than turning up and sorting teas!

[Yorkshire Badgers CC @CcBadgers]

@PeoplesCricket @AnsonStGeorge @AnnieChave @TimGardiner3 @TheMetronomesCC @savevcricket Always welcome, it’s looking likely we will have a home ground as well for 2025 so able to start hosting as well.

Got to say this England side is one of the most exciting I have seen in my lifetime, I’ve also had my head in my hands more than any other England team as well. Bridge the gap between the two and we might be world beaters.

Rest in peace Thorpey.

Iconic for so many reasons, what a wonderful cricketer and human.

[Test Match Special @bbctms]

Terribly sad news.

Former England player and coach Graham Thorpe has died at the age of 55.

Forever in the hearts of the cricket family. ❤️

@RCCyorkshire @ThatsSoVillage Like I said, not for us to get involved, just thought it was an interesting scorecard.

[Yorkshire Badgers CC @CcBadgers]

@SACnQuack @ThatsSoVillage They are top of the league by quite a distance I’ve been told

[Yorkshire Badgers CC @CcBadgers]

@aaabenjwhite @SACnQuack @ThatsSoVillage Would rather not say.

[Yorkshire Badgers CC @CcBadgers]

@SACnQuack @ThatsSoVillage Apparently they walked off after 2 overs

[Yorkshire Badgers CC @CcBadgers]

Excellent game today at Monk Bretton, Runs for Raj, Skipper and Dougie sees us home with 7 overs to go.

@RCCyorkshire @TheMetronomesCC Also half of this over was bowled left handed, then half right handed.

[Yorkshire Badgers CC @CcBadgers]

@RCCyorkshire @TheMetronomesCC Had an excellent day, you guys hosted it brilliantly.

No photos but we’ve got a couple of videos from the second innings so will sort those out and post them soon!

@PeoplesCricket @AnnieChave @AnsonStGeorge @cricket_badger @CricketMcMenemy @TheMetronomesCC @WG_RumblePants @merseyrose @fvcc Two charity games in aid of @TheMetronomesCC the second of which was won by one of our older players running a three off the last ball then collapsing at the non strikers end so he could get his breath back. He ended 42* after batting for over 13 overs!
