Forty Club (Scotland District)

 

Welcome to the Forty Club (Scotland District)

You've found us, the cricket team in Scotland that caters for the young at heart if not in body.
The Forty Club (Scotland District) is open to those cricketers in the twilight of their career hoping for another great innings another great bowling performance.

We cater for enjoyable cricket played on good wickets, there is also a very competitive Inter District Competition.
Our aim is to play and take competitive cricket played in the proper spirit and behaviour to schools and district age sides throughout Scotland.

We have also added a nice blend of club fixtures at picturesque grounds around Scotland including Dollar, Comrie, Manderston, Helensburgh, Cupar and Crathie.

There are 14 School Fixtures during April, May and June.

In July the club takes part in the now very succesful XL Club Inter-District Northern Festival, this year being staged in Yorkshire. There are further games against Scotland District Age sides as well as two matches with the Strathclyde Police.

This year we will be helping Cupar with their 125 year celebration and also re-newing a fixture with Glenalmond Old Boys

The season for us veterans comes to a close in September as we pit our wits at opposite ends of the country on the Clyde Estuary, Royal Deeside and the Kingdom of Fife.
