WELCOME TO THE WORTHING GENTS WEBSITE!
The Worthing Gentlemen are a friendly, family orientated side, who play our cricket at The Manor Sports Ground
(which also played host to Sussex between 1935-1964!)
We are easily located, just off the A24 via Georgia Avenue (see MAP below) in Worthing, West Sussex.
This we share with our saturday league sides Worthing Cricket Club, who can be discovered at www.worthingcc.com
During the season we undertake many friendly matches against a wide variety of opposition and completed a memorable
(and well overdue!!) tour to the Hampton area of Surrey in 2009.
Our pitches are extremely well prepared by the local council groundsmen to a very high standard. Always something in it for both batsmen and bowlers alike
(but infamous for being a batting paradise during the latter stages of the summer!)
The historic clubhouse contains a fully licensed bar, pool table, table footy (recently installed sky tv!) and friendly post match atmosphere.
In recent seasons Worthing CC have introduced a sunday side and this (coupled with our old boys not being desperate to play every weekend any more!) has resulted in a reduction in the amount of Gents fixtures that we now partake in..
However we still have the odd free week available and should you be interested in arranging a fixture with us, yours truly (editor) can be contacted
(ideally) on the e-mail address below.
I will always endeavour to reply as swiftly as possible!
We are able to adjust our side to play against a wide range of standards so don't hesitate in getting in touch should you be interested in taking us on.
