So if you are an overseas or UK  touring side visiting Yorkshire or a more local outfit we would love to hear from you!

The 1st XI finished third in the Premier division of the league in 2018 after its third year of competing in the top tier. In 2014 the club reached the National T20 finals day at Northampton’s County Ground as a Division 2 side, only just missing out in the final. Additionally, they won two back-to-back league titles in 2014 and 2015 to reach the Premier division.

The club has recently invested in a four-lane all-weather net system at the club’s main ground in Ashtead and runs training sessions throughout the summer and pre-season from February starting on 26th February. We have also purchased the PV Match system and will have a live feed for matches at our home games for the 2019 season.

The club has a large junior section, with over 400 girls and boys. The club’s philosophy is to invest into a professionally structured coaching program to have a pathway through to the senior section.

Ex Surrey CCC and current Warwickshire batsman Dom Sibley is an Ashtead lad who is still linked closely with the club. We are a very ambitious, friendly and social club in very tranquil part of Surrey and would welcome new playing members of all abilities.

The ground is a five-minute walk from Ashtead mainline station - accessible from both Waterloo and a short drive from junction 9 of the M25. For more details please email ashteadccdirectorofcricket@gmail.com
