Club Cricket Yearbook 2006

This book fills a long standing and keenly felt gap in the market.  Since 1982, there has not been a yearbook available giving details of league cricket all over the British Isles.

The Club Cricket Yearbook 2006 does just that. in 356 pages covering all major leagues in England, Ireland, Scotland & Wales.  All 25 ECB Premier Leagues are covered, together with many lower level leagues.  We also include the Scottish National League, leagues in Ireland and the various professional leagues in the North of England, as well as the major cup competitions. 

All cricketers need this book!  Got a cup game against unfamiliar opposition coming up?  Then you need to know where they play & how good they are.  Just recruited a new player who says he used to play for XCC?  Wouldn’t it be useful to know what standard XCC play at?  Always wanted to pay a visit to Owmby CC, but thought it would be impossible without a car?  This book tells you different.  Where do I come off the bypass to get to Brighton & Hove CC without struggling through the town centre?  It tells you that!  How come we do all this travelling – do all the clubs in Premier Leagues have to go this far?  This book will answer that one as well. 

And of course, the league tables from over a hundred leagues are here.  Who won the Middlesex League this year?  Who were relegated to the 3rd Division?  All this information is here.
