Welcome to Harlow Town Cricket Club

Harlow Town Cricket Club (HTCC) is one of the biggest clubs in the area and is recognised by the ECB and Essex County Cricket Board as a Focus club. Across the 39 County Cricket Boards in England and Wales there are currently only 1,400 identified Focus Clubs.


Focus Clubs are selected by County Boards on the basis that:
• They are identified as a key deliverer within the County Cricket Board Strategic Development Plan.
• They are committed to delivery of junior development programmes and/or development activities with specific target groups (disability, women/girls, and ethnic minorities).
• They are able to access and utilise ECB, County Cricket Board and local development resources to support the delivery of their club development plan.

HTCC also achieved the prestigious ECB Clubmark accreditation in 2005.

ECB Clubmark Cricket clubs are required to present evidence and demonstrate implementation across four different themes, culminating in the production of a Club Development Plan.
The four themes are:
• Duty of Care and Safeguarding Children
• The Cricket Programme
• Knowing your club and its Community – One Game
• Club Management

The club runs and hosts the only Secondary School Cricket Competition in the area and its volunteer force of coaches donate a significant number of hours to developing cricketers at junior level for boys and girls both inside and outside the club.

The club currently runs 5 regular Saturday senior teams (3 of which play in the Shepherd Neame Essex league and two in the Herts and Essex crickeleague), we also run the occasional 6th XI, a Sunday XI, a Veterans XI and junior teams, boys and girls, at U9,U10,U11,U13,U15 and U16.

The club has recently announced a link up with Passmores School which will be the home of the Harlow Town CC academy from September 2011 catering for juniors between the ages of 7 and 17. The new Passmores facilities include 4 indoor cricket nets, a grass cricket square, an all weather cricket pitch and the potential to host junior matches under floodlights in the new 4G arena.

The club has a young and dynamic volunteer committee who work tirelessly on behalf of the members to constantly improve all aspects of the club. The welcoming club house hosts “Jones’s Bar”, showing Sky Sports, which along with various sponsorship deals and the usual methods for obtaining funding for registered Community Amateur Sports Club (CASC) enable the club to continually invest money back into the running and development of the club and its facilities.

The club holds a number of social events throughout the year which bring all sections of the club together to help foster the general “family” feel of the club, which it is very proud of.

The club actively upholds, encourages and supports the preamble to laws of the game around the spirit within which the game should be played.

During the summer (May to Sept) training nights are as follows:
• Tuesday 6-8pm – Veterans
• Wednesday 6-8pm – Mens senior teams
• Thursday 6-8pm – Juniors (boys & girls) ages 7 to 16
During the winter (Oct – March) training takes place every Monday evening at Pasmores School as follows:
• 6-7pm for ages 7-11
• 7-8pm for ages 11-15
• 8-9pm for ages 16+

The club is open to all members of all abilities and welcomes new members to any section all year round and for more information please email enquires@harlowtowncc.co.uk
