Established in 1850 and located in Buckinghamshire, England, Taplow Cricket Club is a founder member of the Morrant Chilterns Cricket League. We have a large and thriving colts section and two senior teams playing various grades of cricket from the challenges of a highly competitive and enjoyable local league on Saturdays to the more relaxed and traditional image of friendly village cricket on Sundays. Back in 1975, the first XI were champions of the Chilterns League in its inaurgural season. We then had to wait (and wait) 31 years before managing to do it again. 2006 was a big year for us. Not only did we win the league, we also won the league cup for the fourth time in 5 years. Happily, in 2007 we managed to hold on to both trophies; we won the cup after a thrilling win over Wraysbury and we made up a 20 point deficit on the last day to retain the league title over the long time leaders Penn. The playing membership ranges from the colts up to a few seasoned campaigners in their sixties! We've also been fortunate to have had assistance from some extremely talented overseas players here during the last few years. Ten Acres has also seen the likes of Jimmy Adams, Richie Richardson, Ian Harvey, Chris Harris, Derek Underwood plus many other first class and test cricketers playing here in the annual President's match. It's thanks to our president's support that so many extraordinary improvements have been made not only to the clubhouse but to the nets, ground and just about all aspects of Taplow Cricket Club. The committee work hard to continue the development of the club for the benefit of its members. As of August 2007 we now have satellite TV installed and have subscribed to all the SKY Sports channels. We received Community Amateur Sports Club status last year and are currently progressing with the work necessary to attain ECB Clubmark Accreditation. All in all, Taplow Cricket Club count themselves a success story of English village cricket.
