Bridgend CC v Wick CC @Newbridge Fields
18th August 2024 A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away……. Oh ok a couple of weeks ago and in Bridgend. The gallant match reporter forgot what the knot in his piece of string was for and so here, better late than never, is the match report for Wick v Bridgend: The 12 (yes 12) Action men of Wick […]
Vale CC v Wick CC
Sunday 4th August 2024 A rare treat for Wick this weekend as we played away against our good friends the Vale Cricket Club at their home ground. After an exciting low-scoring thriller on the village green a few weeks ago where Wick came to Corntown with high hopes of making it two wins out of two […]
Wick CC v F Troop @ the Village Green
Wednesday 17th July 2024 Cricket is usually a game of highs and lows. Wick cricket is a club of very highs and very lows. We started off the season incredibly, as I’m sure you’re all aware. Winning 6 or 7 games on the bounce, with some genuinely excellent team and individual performances. The last […]
Wick CC v Lisvane CC – Brought to you by Davis & Madden Insurance Agency
Sunday 14th July 2024 Wick welcomed a Lisvane select eleven to the village green for what turned out to be young and chirpy versus old and grizzly; you don’t need to be an avid follower of Wick to guess who was who. Thanks to Kenny, Frasier, Guv for the wicket prep and to our match sponsor […]
Wick CC v Vale CC – Brought to you by R Llewellyn Groundworks
Sunday 7th July 2024 Thank you to this week’s sponsor, local business R Llewellyn Groundworks Ltd (Rhydian). It makes such a difference to our club to have support from local businesses, and it is very much appreciated! A special thank you also goes to David Bowen for his generous donation to […]
Wick CC v Clent CC -Brought to you by Bestie
Saturday 22nd June 2024 Wick welcomed Clent CC a touring team from Worcestershire to the village green for a rare Saturday game. This match is sponsored by Bestie : Bestie himself was due to play but got detained in Paddington leaving Russ no option but to put out the bat signal. Unbelievably the […]
Wick CC vs Cardiff Casuals XI
Sunday 9th June 2024 Wick CC welcomed Cardiff Casuals to the village green for the second Sunday 40 over match of the year, and with high hopes of maintaining their unbeaten start to the season at home (1 game, 1 win) If you’d have asked Emily Bronte to describe the scene, she would have […]
Colwinston vs Wick CC T20
Friday 24th May 2024 Friday night calculator woes! Sorry for the delay in match report – Correspondent was afflicted with a bout of forgetfulness! So, after 2 games of the Wick CC season so far we were 1&1. A last over T20 loss and a good 40 over win. So onto the next…. Ahh, Friday night […]
Llancarfan vs Wick CC T20
Wednesday 29th May 2024 We here at Wick CC like to see ourselves as a multi-faceted juggernaut within the village cricket world, being able to adapt to all styles of the game whether it be 40 over, a 5 day test (🤥) or even the short form of T20. But it is no secret our form in the world of T20 […]
Wick CC vs Penarth CC – Brought to you by Steve Richmond Carpets
Sunday 20th May 2024 The Sunday 2024 season curtain raiser on the Wick village green versus Penarth. Thanks to Frasier, Kenny and the Vale grounds team for preparing a great wicket after the longest wet season on record. Thanks also to match sponsor Steve Richmond’s carpets – if you […]
F-Troop v Wick CC T20 @Newbridge Fields
Wednesday 15th May 2024 First outing for Wick CC who headed to Newbridge Fields to take on F-Troop who are celebrating their 50th year as a club. Would wilful Wick win, would woeful Wick waste wickets, would wonderful Wednesday wow! Well if you’re a Wick fan then more of the wow than the win as […]
Barry West End CC v Wick CC
Sunday 10th September 2023 Wick visited Barry West End for the final game of the 2023 season. With the hot baking Sun and the euro rave blasting from the fairground it felt like the last hurrah of summer. Philomen joined us and the Great Man reckoned he first played on the island in ’73 […]
Wick CC v Vale CC
Sunday 3rd September 23 Wick welcomed our ground sharing compadres/noisy neighbours to the village green. Scheduled meet up at 12.30 for a 1pm start, Gutsy arrived at 12.45. We accepted he was neither late nor on time. Sometimes even the most cold blooded mercenaries choose a side. Our (or is he?) […]
Wick CC v Bridgend CC @ Village Green
20th August 2023 Wick welcomed Bridgend to the village green for a 4O over epic. The grounds crew faced another challenging week; this time failed lawnmowers and the VoG dead grass stockpiling policy. Big thanks to Kenny, Guv, Gareth from Vale CC and Rob Ball for resolving. Wick CC - 102 (28.0): […]
Bridgend CC v Wick CC @Newbridge Fields
6th Aug 2023 Wick CC travelled to Bridgend where Wayne’s faith in Newbridge Fields ability to withstand meteorological events above any other sports field in South Wales was unwavering. He looked up to the onshore winds like Patrick Swayze in Point Break in no doubt he could smell the leather […]
Wick CC v F Troop CC
12th July 2023 Wednesday night, 20 overs, F Troop, 25 runs and retire at the lôn pentref y Wig…disarmingly, no Kenny Wick CC - 106 for 7 (20.0): Russ Milne 27*, Steve Collins 25* F Troop CC - 107 for 2 (10.4): Leo Kelly 2-15 Wick were to bat first. Russ had a plan to beat F Troop, he had it written […]
Colwinston V Wick CC
Friday 7th July 2023 Wick were the welcome visitors to Colwinston on a glorious sunny Friday night for a T20 match. Wick were put in to bat first, not that Russ had won the toss, more the case of players arriving late due to work commitments/finding the ground. Wick CC - 137 for 4 (20.0): Tom Dixon […]
Wick CC v Axbridge CC – Brought to you by Coast Hair & Beauty
Saturday 1st July 2023 Wick welcomed a touring Somerset team, Axbridge CC, to the village green for a windy Saturday friendly (35 overs). Axbridge is near Cheddar of the cheese and gorge fame. The team started the tour on Friday and wisely opted to stay on the boulevard of depravity that is Saint […]
Wick CC Vs Coach & Horses CC
Friday 23rd June 2023 Wick welcomed the Coach & Horses to the village green for a Friday night T20 match. Big thanks to the ground staff for producing yet another beautiful wicket. At one point Wick had the luxury of having 12 players and with the Coach struggling to fill their 11 man roster we […]
Wick CC v Lisvane CC – Brought to you by Bestie Diagnostics.
18th June 2023 Wick welcomed Lisvane to the village green, thanks as always to the grounds crew and thanks to our Match Sponsor Bestie Diagnostics.

Wick CC v Cardiff Casuals CC – Brought to you by Steve Richmond Carpets
Sunday 4th June 2023 Wick village green was the sunny setting for the match v Cardiff Casuals. Wicket well prepared by Kenny and Guv and I’d love to say the outfield was like a carpet, only as it’s a great segue (not Segway apparently) into our Match Sponsor – Steve Richmond Carpets. Thank […]
Wick CC @ F Troop
Wednesday 24th May Sunny evening 20 over cricket at Newbridge Fields versus F Troop. Meet up was 5:45 latest, Amal gets there for 6:05…you know the drill. Wick CC - 102 for 7 (20.0): Rob Dixon 26*, Chris Day 24, Kenny Thomas 15* F Troop - 103 (11.4) : Paul D 25* for Wick It had been a scramble to […]

Barry West End v Wick CC
Sunday 11th September 2022 Whoah! We’re going to Barrybados, Whoah! Back to the island. A ground we love to play at versus Barry West End. Few of the boys got to the island early; Leo and Steve went for a warm up in the nets, Skipper Rob and Chairman Math went to the arcade (proper Committeemen!). […]
Wick CC vs Vale CC in Corntown
Sunday 14th August 2022 A long-awaited invite to play on the Vale Cricket Club Oval was surely motivation enough to brave the sweltering 36 degree Welsh heatwave on Sunday when Wick Village CC met a strong Vale team for a midday start to their 40 over dual. In the midday mirage across the scorched […]
Wick CC vs Bridgend Town 4th’s
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 […]
Wick CC V F Troop CC
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 […]
Wick @ Colwinston
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 man so […]
Wick CC v Cardiff Casuals
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 […]
Wick CC @ Ross-on-Wye
Sunday 26th June 2022 They say what goes on tour, stays on tour but truthfully Saturday was bit of a blur and the details very hazy but the levels of debauchery will either live long in the minds of the residents of Ross-on-Wye or no-one will have noticed our presence. The Wick CC jolly boys outing […]
Wick CC v Penarth IX CC
Sunday 12th June 2022 At 9:24am Gutsy pulled out of the game and Skipper Rob called in 12th man Amal. At 9:28am Gutsy was back in the game and Wick were up to twelve players. Yes it was time to physically, and metaphorically, put on the tin hat as Mr Uncaptainable, the Police House Express, was […]
Wick CC v Lisvane
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 […]
Barry West End v Wick CC
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 watch […]
Wick CC v Gorseinon
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 wicket […]
Bridgend v Wick CC
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 […]
Wick CC v Bridgend Select XI
Sunday 15th August 2021 Meteorologists call their forecasts ‘guidance’ and ‘not guaranteed’ and according to Wick’s very own weather-watchers at 11:56am it was “pissing down” in Ogmore whilst “tropical” in Monknash; clearly Derek Brockway doesn’t do the Heritage coasts extreme weather patterns […]
