WELCOME TO
WHALLEY RANGE CRICKET & LAWN TENNIS CLUB
Whalley Range Cricket & Lawn Tennis Club has been a fixture in south Manchester since 1845, and moved to its current home on Kingsbrook Road in 1923.
​
​
​
​
​
It provides cricket and tennis practice, training and match facilities for people of all ages and abilities all year round, and has two fully stocked bars and all the facilities of a modern sports club. There are three all-weather tennis courts, with lighting, and qualified coaches; three cricket nets, a batting cage for the artificial wicket on the 17 pitch square; and it is all fully accessible for people with disabilities.
But it is people who make a club, and the club members are the club’s owners, and provide all the volunteers to make it run (relatively) smoothly. We keep the membership rates pretty low, and we are now over 600 and growing. The members direct the club’s development through its committee structures, and every year investments are made in the club’s facilities.
The club is fully compliant with Safe Hands; Equality, Diversity and Inclusion; has achieved Club Mark; and is the winner of Cricketer Magazine’s inaugural Greenest Cricket Club in the UK award. It strives to be sustainable.
