The official Twitter page for the Worcestershire County Cricket League: Worcestershire’s biggest cricket league with 193 teams from 79 clubs across 6 counties
As a mark of respect the WCL management committee would like to invite all of its member clubs to observe a minute’s silence prior to the start of their teams’ matches on Saturday.
The wearing of black armbands would also be welcomed but is not mandatory.

Thomas Odell from
@BewdleyCC
aged 14, took an impressive 8-48-10 for the 2nd XI!! Not only this, last week he completed his first ever 5 wicket haul! 💪
A special moment last weekend with Worcester 4th XI and Harborne 6th XI. Harborne lent us a spare fielder due to an injury, in the true spirit of cricket when a catch came to him he took it without any thought, what made it worse for him was that it was his brother he caught out
What a summer of cricket it has been in the Worcestershire County League with loads of great moments to look back on 🏏6⃣🌧️
A massive congratulations to everyone who has made it onto the end of season 2019 Worcestershire Honours Boards 🎉🏏
