Sawbridgeworth Cricket Club is a cricket club located in Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire, England.
The main ground is at Town Fields in the centre of Sawbridgeworth, behind Bell Street, the main commercial street in the town. The club's second ground is situated at The Leventhorpe School, to the north of the town.
Cricket was probably first-played in Sawbridgeworth in the eighteenth century, however the first definite match was in 1823 when two games were played against Saffron Walden.[1] The town had an informal cricket team for many years, home matches played at Pishiobury Park, until the vicar of Sawbridgeworth's Great St Mary's Church, Reverend Arthur Drummond, formed a more formal club in 1862. The first permanent ground was at Rowney Field, and the club moved to Town Fields in 1877.[1]
