The Victoria Park Community Cricket League was formed 30 years ago to provide access to competitive cricket to a wide range of people. Some are more competitive than others, but the aim is that games are played in a friendly and welcoming spirit. Anyone, regardless of ability, is most welcome. To find out how to enter a team for our league or cup competitions contact the league secretary.

Following the completion of the Group stage fixtures, all 24 teams are now in a 12-team Division 1 or Division 2m with "one match already played" (the result from the match against the team in their original group, who are now in the same division).
All teams have 10 matches further to play in their division, culminating with the higher ranking teams playing one another towards the end of the season.
How did we get here? The 24 teams competing this year started in six preliminary groups of four teams. Seeded teams were kept apart as are all new teams.
After these preliminary group matches were complete, the cup tournament started with the first two rounds being played before the top seeded teams joined.
After two weeks of cup matches, league matches restarted with all teams sorted into the two divisions based on where they ended up in their preliminary groups. The top two teams from each preliminary group went into Division 1, and carried forward the result between them as well as playing the top two teams from all the other groups.
Likewise for the teams finishing third and fourth in the
preliminary groups, who moved to Division 2.
The honours board for 2017 was as follows:
Division 1:
Rose & Crown
(won on net run rate: tied on points with
Sky and
Technosys)
Division 2:
Camel
(runners-up: Homerton)
Cup:
Safe Skills
(runners-up: Sky)
Congratulations to all the above teams, and for all the
teams who contributed to another successful season of the Victoria Park Community
Cricket League.
