WHOARE WE?

The St Ives Cricket Club’s known involvement in the community most likely dates past the Federation of Australia. The earliest recorded match dates back to 1902, with cricket in the region stemming back a further thirty years. This places it as one of the oldest surviving district cricket clubs in New South Wales. St Ives Cricket Club subsequently became a foundation club of the Hornsby, Ku-ring-gai and Hills District Cricket Association (HK&HDCA) upon its formation on March 11, 1926.

St Ives Cricket Club have entered the most teams since the inception of the Association and in 2008/09 there were over a hundred registered players in six grades; spanning A-grade to D-Reserves. Of the six entered sides, five secured semi-final berths.

The St Ives Cricket Club is based at our clubhouse located at “the Home of Cricket”, Hassell Park. Hassell Park runs along Mona Vale road in St Ives and signage at the ground is clearly visible to traffic.

The clubhouse is a shared premise with the St Ives Junior Cricket Club and St Ives Rugby Club. The Hassell Park clubhouse premises are called ‘home’ by over a thousand members of the respective clubs and host a wide-range of teams throughout the season.
