WINCHMORE HILL HISTORY - Judd Street Tigers in 2012. Sunday cricket had virtually ceased to exist at the Hill before their arrival. An amalgamation of social teams West XI and Walthamstow Horizontals, they became full members in 2019 changing their name to Winchmore Hill Tigers.

VINTAGE CRICKET - David Rocastle hits out top-scoring with 33 in their charity match against the Kings Head PH Winchmore Hill, summer of 1989 (venue unknown). Adams and Groves made a few but Arsenal's 115 was not enough for the KH who won by 5 wkts despite 4-23 from Andy Cole.

Yes, it's true. Longtime Tiger Matt Webster is the new chairman of @WinchmoreHillCC. Great news for the club. He seems happy
