Additional Information


Inaugurated in the 1959/1960 season, the Darlington Social Cricket Club plays some 22 games per season on the picturesque 'village green' - Darlington Oval - against teams from other social clubs as well as company teams and sporting clubs.




The typical Sunday afternoon game see team gather at the oval for 11:30 for a 11:45 start. Matches consist of each side bowling 40 x 6 ball overs. The first ball each batsman faces is a "free ball" and he cannot be dismissed apart from being run out. Bowlers are restricted to a maximum of five overs each, in fact in most cases everyone bowls 4 overs each -hence everybody participates.
