We are a club that is committed to playing friendly cricket. Unfortunately there are few friendly teams in Merseyside, but we are willing to travel reasonable distances for games.
Are there any teams who would like a game with us in 2026? Standard is weak.
Our inclusive cricket club is looking for new sponsors for the 2026 season.
Interested? Please take a look at the opportunities we have available. We'd love to welcome you and/or your business to the Mersey Rose family.

We are absolutely delighted that our club chair, Joe Crossley, has been included in the MCC's Community Heroes team for 2025.
Official recognition of Joe's 50+ years of volunteering is richly deserved.
We are very proud of our local hero!
What does this mean?
What will the Premier League's "own inclusion campaign to coincide with LGBTQ+ History Month" look like? What will its focus be? What is expected of clubs? Will they be obliged to participate in the initiative? Will players/clubs be allowed to opt in to support Rainbow Laces?
We need one more team to take part in this event.
Each team will play three short games during the day.
We have a mixed-gender, entry-level, pro-disability softball team... but unfortunately we also have several weeks without fixtures.
Are there any teams in the North-West who would like to play us in a friendly game? We're happy to travel.

We urgently need new players.
If you'd like to play cricket for us, or even just try out the game for the first time, all you need to do is show up for training at Wavertree Cricket Club on a Wednesday at 8pm.
All ages and abilities welcome.

Mersey Rose Recs' club secretary Anna Page won a local volunteering award at a prestigious event in St Helens last night.
We're all very pleased that Anna's (often behind the scenes) efforts have been recognised. Well done Anna!

I would say it was hardly necessary.
