Enter the 2014 Davidstow Village Cup Competition

If you are a village cricket club and want to follow in the footsteps of 2013 winners Cleator CC by playing in a final at Lord’s, this your chance!

Next year will be the bicentenary of Lord’s Cricket Ground  and your club has the chance to play there, courtesy of The Cricketer magazine.

In existence for over 40 years, the National Village Cup is a summer-long knockout tournament, offering rural cricketers the chance to compete in a nationwide competition that culminates in a September showpiece final at Lord's. It is the only sporting event in the world that provides such a genuine Roy of the Rovers experience.
