Cricket has had a long association with the borough of Hammersmith and Fulham as there is a wide range of top classes venues available for booking. The cricket pitches are most often grass, but a few of them have artificial wickets that allow for play if it’s raining lightly. Cricket nets can be hired out too in the borough and they are a great way to get back into form after the winter break or just have a knock-about with mates after work. Equipment can be hired out at select cricket venues and some even have bowling machines available for visitors.
