Rainhill Cricket Club has a history stretching back to 1871.
Club volunteers have compiled a detailed history of the club from its beginnings to the present day. While a lot of work and research has gone into this, inevitably there will be gaps and potentially the odd mistake. If you have anything you would like to add to this history please contact us at rainhillcricket@gmail.com
