Brinscall Cricket Club is one of the oldest cricket clubs in Lancashire. Documentary evidence can be found
that dates the formation of the club to 1852, although 1890 is the date which was widely accepted as the year of formation.
Brinscall joined the Chorley & District Amateur Cricket League in 1905, and in 1907 enjoyed their first
championship success. Many more followed the most recent being in 2000, when the club were double champions, with both the
1st and 2nd XI winning their respective divisions.
The club also had a love affair with the league's Ley cup, appearing in seven cup finals between 1994 &
2000, emerging triumphant in six of the.
The club currently runs two senior teams and two junior teams. The 1st & 2nd XI teams play in the
Chorley & District Amatuer Cricket League. These games take place on Saturday's with cup games played on Sunday's. The
junior teams are aged Under 17 & Under 15. These games are played on weekday evenings during May, June, July and
August. It has also been possible in recent seasons to play friendly matches at both Under 13 & Under 11 level and the
club is hoping to continue to offer cricket to younger players in the future.
