Sunday 7th August 2022 Wick had the pleasure of visiting Newbridge fields on a glorious sunny Sunday Afternoon. Talk prior to the match was about the Premiership football season starting and the Wick CC fantasy football league and who did everyone go with upfront Haaland or Kane. Wick were shorn of a player due to …
Wednesday 27th July 2022 Wick CC faced the perennial problem of not beating F Troop on Wednesday at the village green. Rob won the toss and elected to field (better chasing!). With F Troop getting off to a strong start and opening with Vale CC player Darren, Rob wisely threw the ball to Kenny who …
Friday 15th July 2022 Playing cricket in Colwinston is like buying a Gremlin as it comes with specific instructions. One of those is don’t hit a six clear of the hedge into the campsite or you have to retire which is exactly what Iestyn did in the second over of the game. Never seen a …
Sunday 10th July 2022 Sounds like the village fete was an idyllic success but for every Yin there is a Yang as we lost our opening bowler to a beat-the-keeper injury (“he was smashed” was the assessment) and a fete reveller abandoned their vehicle on the hallowed turf leaving the start time in jeopardy.

Sunday 22nd May 2022 Earlier start than usual as the players congregated at the Lamb & Flag for the new kit photoshoot. The fashion world has incorporated plus size models into its industry and Wick stretched that term, plus the shirts, to the limits. But hey, a beer providing establishment on the front of a …
Sunday 12th Sept 2021 For the season swansong, the Wick CC troop headed down to Barry Island to end the 2021 season, as it started, against our great friends Barry West End CC. The West End ground is always a favoured away trip and, true to form, Wick supporters were out in their droves to …
Sunday 5th Sept 2021 Wick welcomed, what turned out to be, a very good Gorseinon team to the village green on Sunday for the final cricket match of the season on the field of dreams. Big thanks to Kenny and Paul Guv Gilbert for the *blood, sweat and tears they have put into preparing the …
Sunday 29th August 2021 Wick were welcomed to the hallowed Newbridge fields for the return game against a Bridgend select XI on Sunday. Not a full match report unfortunately but it was an action packed match with multiple direct hit run outs, controversial snickometer calls, misjudged diving for catches and a boundary bigger than the …
