To book a cricket pitch at one of our recreation grounds, you will need to submit your request at the beginning of the season. Priority will be given to regular hires.
When booking one of the recreation ground cricket pitches:
- you will be asked to upload a copy of your organisation’s Public Liability Insurance with a minimum indemnity limit of no less than £5 million cover
- ad-hoc bookings (less than 5 bookings per request) must be paid online at the time of booking
- regular bookings (5 or more per request) will be payable by invoice
- booking requests should be made at least 2 weeks in advance
If you would like to book a pitch with less than 2 weeks notice, email leisure@elmbridge.gov.uk
Bookings are on a first-come, first-served basis, either for a block booking playing season, occasional games or on an ad-hoc basis.
