The Borders General Hospital, as seen in the photo, was built next to the cricket pitch in the 1980s. Paradoxically this development actually increased the pitch area!
A new hospital car park was built next to the pitch in 2009 which has also improved cricket parking.
The club joined the East of Scotland Cricket League in 2013, having played for many years in the Border League, and has progressed steadily since. As of 2024 we play in Division 5.
Cricket was first recorded in the area as being played at Darnick at the Highfield Academy a local school in the 1850’s. From 1933 onwards the present site, one of the most scenic in the Borders, was leased from General Sir Maxwell Scott, the great great grandson of novelist and poet Sir Walter Scott of nearby Abbotsford. At this time, it was often used to host an Abbotsford team which played against teams raised from other estates in the area and teams from Melrose itself.
Our Club Division
We play in the East of Scotland League, as of 2024 in Division 5, and also the Border 20/20 cup, as well as various friendlies throughout the season.
