Welcome to the official SNAP profile of Earby Cricket Club.

Who Are We?

Hello and welcome to the official SNAP Sponsorship profile of Earby Cricket Club.

Formed in the 1850's Earby Cricket Club is an amateur cricket club which has a rich history and is located in the North West of England on the border of Lancashire and Yorkshire.

In 2025 we will have 3 senior teams playing in the North West Cricket League and 4 junior teams (Under 9's through to Under 15's ) in the Upper Airedale Junior Cricket League.

The North West Cricket League was formed in 2023 and we were founder members and the league covers the geographical areas of East Lancashire and Bolton whilst the Upper Airedale Junior Cricket League which our juniors play in is based in both North and West Yorkshire creating exposure and opportunities for our sponsors in both areas.

We are proud to hold ECB Clubmark accreditation and we continue to strive to progress both on and off the pitch whilst playing a key part within the local community.

Club Misisons

As a club we aim to :

- Engage in the next generation of cricket

Why Sponsor Us?

Whether you are an existing sponsor, a potential new sponsor or an individual supporter of the club there are many ways in which you can contribute to help the club grow successfully and sustainably.

We're delighted to announce that we’ve now partnered with SNAP Sponsorship and we’re looking for sponsors who are excited about affiliating themselves with a successful amateur grassroots cricket club in Earby and the West Craven area of Pendle. We’re a community club with a long history and big ambitions and we are looking to strengthen our relationships within the community by offering a wide range of commercial opportunities which we believe can enhance the marketing output not only around our club and members but via our growing online platforms as well.

We strive to craft a partnership with our sponsors that meets their specific objectives, whether that be community gifting, social responsibility (CSR), direct sales or brand building.

Whatever your motivation, find out more below and thank you for visiting our profile.
