We are very pleased to announce that we have been successful in our application to the ECB for a grant towards the development of our new ground. At a meeting earlier this week an ECB funding committee approved a grant for the full amount that we had applied for. This is a big boost for the club as we hope to begin the groundwork in August & is the culmination of some very hard work by the clubs committee, especially Charlie Scott, Dick Reeve & Neil Wedge & has been well supported by the ECB & the Leicestershire & Rutland cricket Board. It completes a good month for the club which also saw us gain clubmark accreditation, reach three cup finals & top the league tables with three different senior teams.

Mixed fortunes for the club last weekend as the first team won away at March & the seconds were beaten at home by Peterborough Town.

The first team lost to Bourne Town in the final of The Stamford Shield which was played at Burghley Park last Monday evening. Bourne batted first & scored 102 from their 20 overs & Uppingham were bowled-out for 61. Pictures.

On Tuesday evening the Burrough league team beat Whissendine to continue their unbeaten run this season. It all came down to the last over with Whissendine needing 10 for victory with 4 wickets remaining but 3 run-outs & a stumping saw Uppingham home with a ball to spare.

The junior presentation evening & bowl-out will take place on Thursday 21st August, all welcome. A barbeque will also be available on that evening. All welcome.

Please enter the competition here to try & win a new mower for the club, (you'll need to know that our current mower is an Allett).

Please take a moment to read this.

We are pleased to announce that Adams & Sons Ltd (Daihatsu) have agreed a sponsorship deal with the clubs junior section. More details here.

Outside youth cricket training continues up at the club on Thursday nights from 6.30pm & regularly sees 100+  children keen to learn new skills.

A reminder that all memberships are now overdue.  Forms can be downloaded from the website.

We would like to take this opportunity of thanking all of our 2008 sponsors & hoping that we can look forward to your continued support. Any new sponsors of the club would be very welcome as we look to build for the future.

 This year the Club has entered a third team into weekend League cricket  which contains a mixture of senior & junior players to continue the development of our many younger players an introduction to competitive cricket.

The U13's had a very successful tour to Suffolk last season. Report & pictures.

The jokes page  has made it's long awaited return here.

Following last years dismal response to the request for photos of club members in their UTCC shirts around the world, I thought we would give it another try this year. The first picture received was from Ed Scott who wore his shirt while over in Kenya.

We are a Focus Club & we have now also gained ECB ClubMark accreditation whereby we have demonstrated that we are fully equipped in every sense to look after youngsters and promote cricket to the youth of the community.

To comply with ClubMark regulations we have a Child Welfare Officer and we ensure that sufficient qualified coaches and supplementary helpers are always available to look after all of our colts.

All of our coaches and helpers have undergone Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) checks and the coaches have taken first aid courses in addition to their cricket coaching courses.

You can rest assured that your children are in safe hands at the club.

We are looking to find out as much about the clubs history as possible. If  you have any old documents, photographs etc that relate to the club that we could have, or have copies of, please pass them on to a committee member.

Any early memories or stories about the club would also be of great interest. Many thanks to club president the late Peter Scott for his contribution.

If any club captains or officials have any reports or information that they would like posted on the site, please send it to me at kev.bennett@lineone.net . (Ideally in Word or Excel formats).

We have added a Player Profiles section to all teams. If you would like to add your profile you can download a form here.
