We believe that Bishop\u2019s Stortford Cricket Club is the oldest club in the world to have played on the same ground throughout its existence since 1825.<\/p><p>As we approach that milestone we are delighted with the health of our organisations and the drive for progress.\u00a0 Over the last few years, new tennis courts have been built and others resurfaced, the \u2019bubble\u2019 being erected each winter to allow all year round tennis. Two padel courts are currently under construction giving members an opportunity to play this sport that is rapidly growing in popularity, and the new junior cricket pitch which has recently opened. In addition, the Bishop\u2019s Stortford North Consortium have donated 2 acres of land in Ash Grove to us, which will be used to further expand our facilities in the future.<\/p><p>As well as extending and improving our facilities, our total membership has grown significantly doubling in the last 10 years. We now have more teams than ever playing competitively and the Cricket 1 st Team won the Saracens Hertfordshire Cricket League Championship in 2021.<\/p><p>Socially we are very active, with events such as the annual Beer and Music Festival growing more and more successful, and the club has twice been named CAMRA Club of the Year for the whole of East Anglia. This success has greatly increased bar profits which have been used to subsidise the cost of maintaining our sports facilities, including our award winning grounds, in accordance with our charitable objectives.<\/p><p>Bishop\u2019s Stortford Community Sports Club is a vibrant sporting and social organisation that is building for the future, ready to take the next step and build a wonderful new pavilion in time for our bicentenary.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7abfbe5 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7abfbe5\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d9028a7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-menu-anchor\" data-id=\"d9028a7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"menu-anchor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"need-for-a-new-pavilion\" class=\"elementor-menu-anchor\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-da6e3a2 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"da6e3a2\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-32c3804 elementor-widget__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"32c3804\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The need for a new pavilion<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8bece40 elementor-widget-tablet__width-initial elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"8bece40\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/bssportstrust.co.uk\/give\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Pledge Now!<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9286bf7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"9286bf7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bssportstrust.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/CEP-2021-cropped-qb0d9ta03xien7swqobkdr75vqp14a1k97umq6xnd4.jpg\" title=\"CEP 2021 (cropped)\" alt=\"CEP 2021 (cropped)\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-20071b6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"20071b6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The Charles Edwards Pavilion, built in 1972, is now at the end of its useful life.\u00a0\u00a0 Growth in membership and our plans for the future require a larger space for spectating and socialising as well as improved changing facilities.<\/p><p>Regulars will know that the roof frequently leaks, the building is cold and expensive to heat and the number of toilets is insufficient to cope on busy summer days.<\/p><p>Investments over the last few years, such as the outside patio, have helped us cope with increased demand but further growth will be restricted by the size of the CEP.\u00a0 The lack of inside space and facilities stops us from hosting events from parties to conferences or from providing daytime facilities.<\/p><p>The ongoing housing development on Stortford Fields and elsewhere in town is increasing the demand for community, social and sporting facilities<\/p><p>This creates an opportunity for Bishop\u2019s Stortford Community Sports Club to meet that demand and become a central hub for the local community throughout the year, hosting events both sporting and social while always making space for our valued regulars.<\/p><p>We need a facility to feel proud of and an inviting environment for players, spectators and members of the local community,\u00a0 where we can welcome visiting teams and their supporters;
