It’s all set to be a busy Bank Holiday weekend at the Log Cabin.
On Saturday (23rd), our third team travel to Nelson for their final league match of the campaign having secured promotion last weekend.
They will be looking for a win to seal the championship title and cap another successful season and would welcome any away support to top the season off.
Meanwhile, at home we are playing hosts to Edgworth second eleven while they have refurbishment work completed on their ground. If you fancy a change and can’t make it up the M65 to see the thirds, Edgworth are playing Daisy Hill first team in the Greater Manchester League. 12.30pm start.
The main event of the weekend is on Sunday (24th) when the first team meet Rishton at home.
Greenmount are 24 points clear at the top of the table with four matches to play and will secure promotion with a win.
This will be the last chance to see professional Jacques Snyman at the Mount before he departs home to South Africa before returning in 2026.
Meanwhile, our second string continue their promotion drive with a trip to Rishton in the reverse fixture.
On Bank Holiday Monday we have ladies cricket at the club with a Cheshire Women’s Cricket League Division One fixture between Leigh CC and Lindow CC. Play starts at 1.30pm.
The club are looking to start our own womens’ and girls’ section for the 2026 season so it would be great to see plenty of support for this fixture.
With that in mind, any girls/women who wish to be involved in a new Greenmount CC womens team starting next summer should contact club chairman Andy Skinner at skinner_a@sky.com with their details and a contact number.
