Welcome
The Sussex Cricket Society was formed on 6 April 1965 from a happy thought
by Alan Oakman, the former Sussex and England cricketer.
The aims and objectives of the Society are "To further cricket interest and enthusiasm
and to provide a source of contact between cricket lovers and
to promote and conduct meetings, social functions and other gatherings."
To this end the Society holds 6 monthly meetings from October through to March
Currently the Society has over 250 members.
All meetings are held at 1st Central County Cricket Ground Eaton Road Hove
