About us

We are Bradford Park Avenue Ladies Cricket Club founded in 2019 for all women and girls. We offer a range of cricket for all abilities and all age groups.
BPAL are a club that welcomes all women of all abilities to come and try a sport we love. We have teams in the Yorkshire women’s and girls league, and the west Yorkshire softball league for those who just want to have a bit of fun.
Here at BPAL CC we are all about enjoyment, and not just on the cricket pitch. BPAL CC is a environment that thrives on the friendships that has been built and continues to grow. We enjoy social meals, get togethers, cake (there’s always cake) and so much more. Our calendar is always full so please do come and visit us!.

Juniors
BPAL has a full programme that your little girls can enjoy from ages 5-8 and Dynamos for ages 8-11. These sessions are run by fully qualified and DBS checked ladies from BPAL CC. All equipment is provided so don’t feel like you have to rush out purchase anything.
Softball
Here at BPAL CC, we know that not all ladies fancy hardball. For those ladies that just want to come down for a bit of exercise and friendly competition, we also run softball. This game is for any ability, even if you have never picked up a cricket bat or ball. No need to worry about any equipment just come and give it a try. Training sessions run concurrently with the hardball, but catered for by use of softball bats and balls. BPAL CC will be entered into the West Yorkshire Softball league for 2021.
