Halverstown Cricket Club

Notice is hereby given that the 2025 Annual General Meeting of Halverstown Cricket Club will take place via Zoom on Wednesday, November 26th 2025 at 7:30pm.

Fantastic coverage of the clubs Player of the Year Awards in this week's Leinster Leader. Make sure you buy a copy. Huge thanks to @cricketireland.ie for sending down Christina Coulter-Reilly and Liam McCarthy to help present our awards. Such a brilliant day.

Our Player of the Year Awards take place this Sunday. Huge excitement to build all week.

Wishing our friends and neighbours in Kilcullen GAA all the very best with the "Field of Dreams" launch today. We hope it goes brilliantly for you.

With all the rain over the last 48 hours, the pitch has turned into a swamp. Unfortunately, both of the weekend's social fixtures have now been cancelled.

H1 wrap up their League season today away to Tyrrelstown. With 5th place in the league secured, let's hope for a strong finish. The Oaks play tomorrow at home to Enniscorthy. Finally, our U15 boys wrap up their season today at home to Wexford.

Two games left for H1 this season, and 1 win needed to avoid the drop. This is their final home game of the season against Clontarf Cricket Club. The Oaks welcome RTÉ for a 30 overs game tomorrow.

H2 wrap up a brilliant season today. Promotion secured. The Oaks travel to the wonderfully scenic Mount Juliet today for a Social game. Our U15 Boys and Girls also play today. The Girls travel to Leinster while the Boys host Bagenalstown.

Promotion secured after a 5 Wicket victory over Clondalkin. Back to Back Promotions. Some incredible milestones today, too. Avanish Patel scored 65 Not Out and broke the HCC record for most runs in a season set back in 2012. He currently has 633 runs in 2025.

What a way to finish. A huge thanks to all the kids, parents, and our own Activators for running such a really fun camp over the last 6 weeks. Hopefully, we'll see a few players signing up for our U11s next season.

All good things come to an end, and our amazing Smash-It and It's Wicket Camps wrap up tonight. These Camps sell out every year and are a brilliant way to introduce a child to Cricket. We'll be back again next Summer.

Our U13 Boys and Girls are also in action tomorrow. The boys play their final game of the season away to Pembroke while the girls are at home to Railway Union.

It's a really big weekend for the club with both Relegation and Promotion fights. It's must win territory for H1 to stay in Div 12, while a win for H2 against Clondalkin will all but guarantee Promotion from Division 19.

H1 has to travel to Ringcommons to face league leaders County Cavan. Our U15 Girs and U13 boys both play at home on Sunday. The girls played Merrion, and the boys play Greystones.

We are really at the most important time of the year when promotion and relegation are decided. Both H1 and H2 have vital games in their division. All HCC Adult teams are on their travels. The Oaks and H2 travel to our friends and rivals in the county North Kildare.

H2 travel to Castleknock Cricket Club on Monday in a 1st vs 2nd clash. Meanwhile, our U13 boys has 2 games this weekend. They travel to Adamstown Cricket Club on Saturday and Railway Union on Monday, while our U13 girls are at home to Leinster Cricket Club on Sunday morning.

We finished July on a high with 2 great wins last weekend. We are into a really busy Bank Holiday weekend. The Oaks play White City today for the Alan Ruddock Trophy. County Cavan Cricket Club visit Brannockstown for the first ever time on Saturday to play H1.

Its that time of the year when we welcome our friends over from White City to play for the Alan Ruddock Trophy on Friday. This game will always have very special meaning for the club, as you will see on the link below beautiful penned by Alan's son Danny.

I want to really give Merrion Cricket Club a huge commendation for a game played In absolutely beautiful spirit, in a current ecosystem where the spirit of the game seems to be getting lost... one cannot understate the pleasure in playing against these fine players

As July comes to an end, both Halverstown teams have vital games at both ends of the table. H1 travel to Merrion tomorrow, while on Sunday H2, welcome our friends and neighbours North Kildare. Our U13 Boys travel to Terenure tomorrow in a refixed game from last weekend.

Great craic this morning at our sponsored fun run. Big thanks to popupraces and NurneyGAA for allowing us to piggy back on their event and to Kildare Sports Partnership for doing a great job marshalling the race. Congrats to Charlie and Arun for being the first Adult & Youth home in the race.

After a disappointing week, both Halverstown Adult teams are looking to bounce back. H1 play Naas on Saturday and H2 travel to Clondalkin on Sunday. In Youth action, our U11s play Bagenalstown tonight. U13s travel to Terenure, and U15s travel to Carlow both on Sunday.

A really big weekend for both our Adult teams this weekend. H1 travel to play Clontarf on Saturday while H2 welcome Leinster on Sunday.

These were our Summer Camp classes of 2024. So many of them are now playing league cricket with Halverstown. Only a week left before the 2025 Camps begin. This really is your last chance to sign up. The links are below.

Both League teams in action this weekend. H1 travel to Malahide tomorrow. Before that game kicks off, our U13 girls also play Malahide. On Sunday, H2 take on Naas.

We had a brilliant morning playing Greystones. Our U13 Girls had such a close game, but thankfully got over the line. Greystones 145-5 (20 Overs). Halverstown 147-3 (20 Overs). Greystones were such lovely hosts, and hopefully, we'll see you later in the season in Kildare.

After a weekend off, it's going to be a busy 4 days for the club. We have tourists visiting from England and Wales to play the Oaks tomorrow and Saturday. H2 play Castleknock on Sunday. And of course, we have the "Kildare Derby" on Saturday as H1 travels to North Kildare.

It's a busy weekend for the club, but we may find the weather to be tough opposition. The Oaks travel to Malahide Cricket Club tonight. H1 welcome Wicklow County Cricket Club tomorrow in the Cup and H2 play Lucan Cricket Club on Sunday. Our U13 Boys have 2 games. They play Greystones and Clontarf.

A huge thanks to Cricket Leinster and Kildare Sports Partnership for their continuing support. Please look out for coverage of the event in the Kildare Nationalist in the next week.

Halverstown Cup Winners 2025 - Hewetson School from Clane. We had an incredible day at the club and were delighted to host the final for the 2nd year. So unlucky that once again, Scoil Mhuire from Ballymore were runners up.
