About Us

Whitstable Cricket Club was formed in 1856. The club played at many grounds within the town before settling at the Belmont permanently in 1946.

In common with most clubs, friendly cricket was the mainstay prior to the inception of league cricket. Whitstable Cricket Club entered the East Kent League as founder members from 1976 until 1995, when the South Thames and the East Kent Leagues merged with the Kent League to form an open structure.

Although the club has had many successes over the years 2012 would be the standout year with all three sides winning promotion – both first and second teams to Kent League Premier divisions and the 3rd team winning promotion in the Kent Regional league. The highlight of that year was the win in the national indoor 6-aside final at Lords in front of many supporters who travelled up from Whitstable.
