Our Vision
Deliver Cricket for all
Our landmark facility will enable everyone to enjoy cricket in a spectacular location. Our flourishing ladies and junior sections will have much improved facilities, and we will become a regional centre for disability cricket. A culture of growth, development and excellence.
Put Budleigh on the map
The way a cricket club should be – for everyone, integral to the community, a place to foster ambition and to develop leaders. Our club will raise the bar – the envy of the west, and create yet another reason to visit our fantastic town.
Envy of the west
We will create a destination facility that will sustain the club within the community for the next 100 years. With the state-of-the-art facilities, and the creation of 2 pitches and purpose built clubhouse we will:
● Support the needs of our 400+ current members and enable growth
● Provide top quality senior cricket with 3 teams instead of the current 2 allowing teenagers better access to adult cricket in a safe environment
● Enable and grow our junior squads, increasing the strength and depth of our 9 junior teams (Aged 6 to 19).
● Allow us to expand our current ladies’ team and facilitate ladies cricket across all age groups
● Facilitate disability cricket with the pavilion being specifically designed with this in mind
● Ensure competitive cricket for all abilities, including the growth of the current Budleigh Community League (BCL).
● Allow us to host junior and senior county games, promoting Budleigh and benefiting the wider town.
● Host more touring sides, bring more trade to the area
● Provide state-of-the-art facilities for hosting local business, community interest groups, schools and other clubs.
● Have the capacity to run social events with up to 110 guests seated, completely independently to any cricket.
● Be a hub for social gatherings bringing the community together.
It will compliment it’s beautiful natural surroundings and be built to be as environmentally friendly as possible.
