Chippenham Rugby Club Expand into Cricket

The construction of a new Two Bay Practice Facility has just been completed alongside Chippenham Rugby Club.  Two ECB approved Premier System Batting Ends were chosen along with bowling ends and Verdegrass 14 surrounds.  A netted Heavy Duty Frame was erected to finish the project off.

The new ground is hopefully attractive enough to encourage cricketers from surrounding villages to join the newly formed club and make use of these brand new facilities.

Linden Homes acquired the former Westinghouse sports ground a few years ago with a plan to move Westinghouse Cricket Club to Allington Playing Fields to be alongside Chippenham Rugby Club.  However, before the project took off, the Cricket Club folded due to lack of playing members.

Linden Homes and the Rugby Club decided to continue with the development as a joint venture and soon constructed a new square and pavilion and in 2018 they approached Verde Sports Cricket to install a double bay practice facility.
