We will also be using this blog to update you on project-related events and news. Like, for example, this week, I went to Calder High School in Mytholmroyd to talk to the kids there about studying History at university and I used some of our archive cricket images from Mytholmroyd, Hebden Bridge and Sowerby Bridge etc to help them understand that History can be interesting, fun and relevant.

About the project:
This blog was originated in 2008 as an offshoot of the separate website ‘The cricket history of Calderdale and Kirklees’ which covered in depth the histories of every league cricket club in these two areas of West Yorkshire. Unfortunately this site fell into disuse although there are now plans to reinstate it by the Yorkshire Cricket Foundation.
Meanwhile the blog has gone its own way and has expanded into a review of cricket at all levels throughout the north of England, both past and present. The three current bloggers are all Yorkshire based. Tony Hutton and John Winn are both members of Durham and Yorkshire county clubs and Brian Sanderson is an active member of the Yorkshire archives committee.
We have now recruited Lancashire based Mike Latham, well known in both cricket and rugby league circles, to provide an ever wider coverage of cricket from the north.
