Sonning Cricket Club is located in the picturesque village of Sonning on Thames, just to the east of Reading, in Berkshire.

We are a very successful and popular village cricket club, with our 1st playing in Thames Valley League Divn 2b, our 2nd XI in TVL Divn 5A and our 3rd XI in Divn 3 of the Berkshire League.

We also run two XIs on a Sunday, with a wide range of friendly fixtures against clubs scattered across the counties of Berks, south Bucks and north Surrey. We have a full senior fixture list with cricket to cater for all standards, from mid-April to mid-Sept, and our summer tour to the Cardiff area is legendary!

Our pre-season indoor nets take place on Tuesday evenings from 13th Feb until 14th May inclusive at Reading Blue Coat School, Sonning, from 6.45 until 7.45, and our senior outdoor practice nets will be held thereafter at our home ground at King George's Field on Thursday evenings.

For further information on senior cricket, please contact the Chairman, Ali Driver: ali@sonningdrivers.plus.com

Our juniors continue to go from strength to strength following their inaugural season in 2008, and in 2012 we will be running U9s, U11s, 2 x U13s and U15s and all will be playing league cricket. Training is held for all age groups on a weekly basis at our home ground King George's Field and at Reading Blue Coat School. For further information on junior cricket, please contact the relevant age group manager via the details on our Contacts page.

We are a very friendly and sociable club which plays hard on and off the field and new players are always welcome.

Ali Driver, Chairman, Sonning CC
