Welcome to Academy Cricket Club

Academy C.C. was formed in 1965 and is based at Hydepark (outside Belfast) in County Antrim, N. Ireland and runs four weekend sides, a midweek T20 team and three junior teams. In 2011, the 1st XI were playing in Section 2 of the Northern Cricket Union. In 2010, the 1st XI won the Junior Cup for the third consecutive year. There is also a youth cricket section and training/matches for U9s, U11s, U13s and U15s during the summer.

The club is always on the look out for new players of all standards. Why not come and have a look? As well as cricket, the club also has a strong rugby club and ladies hockey section.

The 1st XI plays its home games at the PSNI Sports grounds at Newforge. The 2nds, 3rds and midweek either play there or the BRA playing fields at Roughfort. Outdoor practice is held in the summer on Thursdays at Roughfort in state-of-the-art nets. Indoor nets take place in the winter at the BRA school sports hall.
