About Us

Our membership fee is Ł5.00 per annum and is due on 1st April. New members pay Ł8.00 in the first year. Members who have not renewed their subscription by June 30th have to pay Ł8.00 We also have a guest fee of Ł2.00. Our membership is around 230.

The objectives of the Society are to foster, promote and develop an interest in Derbyshire County Cricket Club, with an emphasis on youth cricket. To achieve these objectives we hold Speaker Evenings during the winter. We usually hold six meetings a season, starting at the end of September and going through to our AGM in April.

During the season we hold meetings at the following venues, New Mills Town Hall [map], Marple Golf Club [map] and Disley Golf Club [map].

The format of our meetings remains the same and has proven to be popular with our members. We start our evening with a talk by our Guest Speaker, we then break for a buffet supper for approximately 20 minutes. The second half of the evening is a question and answer session.
