Our History
Reepham has a long history of cricket in the village although early information is sparse, but there are occasional newspaper reports of a club based in the town as early as 1805. In the 1850s and 1860s the club appeared to be thriving – in one season even hiring a professional bowler.
However, the club must have run into difficulties and efforts were made to re-establish it, notably in 1875 when, in spite of funds being provided by Rev. Sir Edward Repps Jodrell, and a core of enthusiasts, a ground could not be procured. The club was later re-formed in 1881 after a break of 16 years. >> more information here
This incarnation of the Reepham and Salle Cricket club was set up in 2001 by Joe Hollis, with the backing of Peter Salisbury, Jim Everton and a group of enthusiastic players!
