St Michael's Cricket Club

St. Michael’s Cricket Club, based at Kingholm Park, Dumfries in South West Scotland was established in its current form in 1952. Our current constitution states:

“St. Michael’s Cricket Club aims to promote cricket as a mass participation sport and make it fun, safe and accessible for all those who wish to play cricket regardless of age, sex, or playing ability.”

In 2010 DMPS St Michael’s First XI won the Western District Cricket Union (WDCU) Division 2 and played in the WDCU Premiership last season, narrowly missing promotion to the Scottish National Cricket League. Our Second XI, John Pagan & Son Kingholm played in the WDCU Championship, finishing in the top half of the final table. We also have a T20 side playing in the John Henderson & Son Midweek League, and a Sunday XI which next season will play in the WCDU Sunday League as well as offering a programme of friendly fixtures with other local clubs.

During the season senior practices are on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6.00 pm at Kingholm Park. All new players are welcome and can compete for the chance to play 100 over cricket for our main League teams, DMPS St. Michael’s and Kingholm or in the less demanding 80 over sunday fixtures.

The Club is very proud to have achieved both Dumfries & Galloway Sports Club and Cricket Scotland TOPClub (Bronze Award) accreditation. The Under 16 Squad

Sports Club Accreditation Scheme, run by Dumfries & Galloway Leisure and Sport is an effective way to demonstrate to parents, schools and the wider community that St. Michael’s Cricket Club has achieved nationally recognised standards in junior coaching and child protection.

We believe strongly in the importance of promoting youth cricket - our Under 13, Under 11_and Girls' sides that make up our Academy and Development sections.

Currently St Michael's Cricket Club subscriptions for adult players are set at £60 a year (concessions available for students, juniors, unemployed and non-playing members). For full details see our subscription page.

At the start of the 2011 season, Saints installed a new cricket square at Kingholm Park with the expert help of Simpson & Partners. The club would like to thank Dumfries and Galloway Council for their support in making this happen.
