Goresbrook CC

And we’re off, two friendly sides preparing for the season. As batting at @SWCCcrocus Bs bowling at @BentleyCC_

Cricket is back on Saturday - we have two pre-season fixtures at Saffron Walden and at Bentley. The 1s then visit @HCCOfficial in the League Cup on the 25th April - our 2s however are looking for an away fixture on both Sat 25 April and Sat 2 May.

Early 2026 season news; we will make the short trip to Harrow Lodge Park to face @HornchurchCC on Saturday 25 April in the first round of the revamped League Cup, which is now a straight knockout featuring the top 32 ranked clubs in the league.

Good luck to Maswer Mansoor, who plays for Leyton against York in the @_MCCFoundation u16 final at @HomeOfCricket today. Robert Clack student Maswer broke into the 1st team this year & bowled with pace & skill, usually with the new ball. Go well Maswer!

Thanks to all captains, coaches, volunteers and ground staff. Cricket in Dagenham remains alive & kicking. The challenge is now to kick on again in 2026…

As the season closes, we can reflect on solid progress in 2025. Especially given that in Feb, we didn’t have a ground. 1s finished 5th, our highest finishing position in Div 2 of the Essex League. 2s improved throughout, to end with a top half finish 3s blooded many youngsters

Final week: 1s (5th) travel to @BelhusCC (9th) looking to cement a top half finish. The hosts must win & see Old Brentwoods lose at home to relegated Stanford to survive. 2s (8th) host @BarkingCricket (10th) at Noak Hill CC 3s (8th) travel to @gprcricket (10th)

Ooooh @ravibopara The first player to score 100 against Goresbrook colts, still got it….

Just 2 games left: 1s (6th) head to @1887slhcc (10th) in search of a top half finish. Any combination of results where next week’s opponents Belhus don’t gain 2 points on us will confirm Div 2 status for 2026 2s (9th) host champions elect Neo 3s (8th) host @RedbridgeCrkt (3rd)

And the 2s and 3s both win for a rare full

Terrific win for the 1s who ease relegation fears with a comfortable chase of @CcBrentwoods 257-9 Jordan Calverley anchoring the effort with an unbeaten 81 as we get home with 6 overs to spare.
