As Rushden & Higham Town Cricket Club celebrates its landmark 150th season, this year’s ECB Get Set Weekend promises to be more than just pre-season preparation, it’s a chance to come together and celebrate everything that makes the club special.

Proudly known as a family club, Rushden & Higham is built on the commitment and spirit of its people. Players, parents, youth members, and supporters are all encouraged to be part of the day, helping to get Short Stocks ready for what promises to be a memorable summer. Whether you’ve been involved for decades or are new to the club, this is an opportunity to feel part of something bigger.

There’s a real sense of excitement around the ground, not least because the patio works are nearly complete. These improvements will give the club a fantastic new social space, and with a final push from volunteers, we can start the season with Short Stocks looking absolutely fabulous, a venue the whole club can be proud of.

Get Set Weekend is about more than tidying up; it’s about togetherness. It’s a reminder that the strength of the club lies in its community. By coming together, lending a hand, and sharing a few laughs along the way, we set the tone for the entire season ahead.

In this historic 150th year, there’s no better way to begin than by standing side by side, as one club, one community, and one cricket family.
