Mildenhall Cricket Club

Mildenhall Cricket Club in Suffolk was established in 1876 and plays at Wamil Way, a picturesque riverside setting with two cricket fields, where the club also grows its own willow trees for bat making.

In 2016 the club's 1XI won the Two Counties Cricket Championship (Suffolk and Essex) and was promoted to the East Anglian Premier Cricket League. In 2017 the club's first team competes on Saturdays in the East Anglian Premier Cricket League and the second, third and fourth teams play in the Two Counties Cricket Championship. The club also has two teams playing in the Hunts County Bats Suffolk Cricket league on Sundays, a team competing in the La Hogue Fordham midweek T20 league, a youth section with players as young as seven, and runs a thriving ladies' team.

Notable players have included England internationals Tymal Mills and Tom Westley, Essex Women's Lilly Reynolds, and Suffolk's Andrew Squire. In 2017, West Indian international Tino Best and South African Tyron Koen were overseas players.
