Cowbridge Cricket

In the mid 1890’s E.H.Ebsworth, of Llandough Castle, prepared a wicket with the help of Kent’s Alex Hearne, in one of his fields in Cowbridge, called Cae Wyndham. Here, a Cowbridge XI played Bridgend Cricket Club in 1895.

By 1906 there were enough players in Cowbridge for a club called the Cowbridge Wanderers to be formed, together with a tennis and squash club. During the winter months football and rugby were played at Cae Wyndham.

In 1913 all of these separate teams merged to form the Cowbridge and District Athletic Club, and they purchased Cae Wyndham from Ebsworth.

Membership of the club is now buoyant, with adult 1st, 2nd and West Wales XIs being fielded each week. In addition to these, there are very active junior under 11, 13 and 15 XIs.

New members are very welcome. If you would like to become a member, there is a range of membership grades to chose from, either playing or non-playing.

Cowbridge & Aberthin Darts Team

The team plays in the Cowbridge and District Darts League and also meet on Tuesday nights when there are no matches for a sociable game and a few drinks. We’re currently sitting just over half way up the B League table, and have been hovering there for some time - although we were runners-up a few years ago. We mainly regard the league matches as a social occasion and try not to take ourselves too seriously.

We always provide a warm welcome for anyone who wants to join in with the league games or just turn up on a Tuesday evening for a friendly game of darts and a few drinks.Matches are played on Tuesday nights, either at home or in a variety of other pubs in the Cowbridge area. Wander in about 8 o’clock and you’ll find some-one practicing.
