🏏Anyone for Cricket? 🏏

For generations, the lawns of Leith Hall echoed to the sound of summer cricket as local schoolboys faced the estate foresters in an annual match. The last recorded game took place in 1937, before many of those young players left for lives shaped by the years that followed.

This August, cricket returns to Leith Hall for the first time in almost nine decades.

In partnership with Huntly Cricket Club we're delighted to host a Soft Ball Cricket Festival for young players, bringing a new generation onto the historic grounds where cricket was once a much-loved summer tradition.

Whether you're a lifelong cricket fan or simply looking for a great family day out, come along, bring a chair or picnic rug, and enjoy an afternoon in the beautiful parkland setting of Leith Hall. Watch the excitement unfold, cheer on the players, and experience the timeless pleasures of cricket in one of Aberdeenshire's most picturesque locations.

Henrietta's Tearoom will be open throughout the day serving refreshments, home baking and treats.

Sunday 30 August 2026

Soft Ball Cricket Festival
Family friendly • All welcome

Join us as we celebrate the return of cricket to Leith Hall and help create a new chapter in a story that began generations ago.

"The foresters may be gone, but the sound of cricket returns to Leith Hall."

Saturday Results 🏏👀

A mixed weekend for the club. The 1st Team suffered a disappointing defeat at the hands of Crescent.

However at Castle Park, the 2nd XI demolished Banchory to fire themselves to the top of Grade 2 with just one game to go.💪

Special mention to Jordan Squire who produced a man of the match performance, hitting 77 runs with the bat and taking 4 wickets with the ball to get the 2nd XI over the line.👏
