Welcome from the chairman

I joined Wooburn in 1986, when a job move brought me here. I intended to join High Wycombe, a club I had previously played against, but a first stroll down to Wooburn Park the weekend after I moved revealed decent cricket being played with a smile in a lovely setting, and I was hooked.
Lots of clubs will claim to be friendly, but it is rare to find one which is as welcoming as Wooburn, and nearly 40 years on I couldn’t be happier with the decision I made to throw my lot in with the Narks.
We truly are at the heart of our community, and on summer Friday nights in particular, with parents winding down after a hard week, while their children enjoy our mini cricket sessions, we literally are at the centre of village life.
With the support of our wonderful Parish Council, a new pavilion was built in 2012, and it gives us a home which does justice to our setting. We have invested heavily in recent years in improving the quality of our playing facilities, with new nets and significant upgrades in ground maintenance equipment, all of which add to the enjoyment. But in the end, it’s all about the people. Our players are mostly products of our thriving junior system, and amongst our members are several families whose involvement goes back a generation or more.
If you are new to the area, or thinking of moving clubs, give us a try – and social members are just as welcome as those looking to play. Not everyone stays for 40 years, but who knows?
