In 2000, the Club won the 50th North Devon Knock Out Cup, beating Hatherleigh at Instow on a wet Friday evening. Team picture here, match report here.

Here's a picture of the ground circa late 1950's (we believe). Note that the Pebble Ridge Hotel stands prominently behind where the present Pavillion is situated. And notice the Beach Huts where the Go-Karts now whizz round.  Behind the Pavillion these days are modern bungalows. Thanks to Paul Argyle for this one.

The Club used to play in the Vickers Credit Winter Indoor League at North Devon College until that particular competition folded. Here's a report about an extraordinary record-breaking game (I think in 1998) where Bideford scored 200 in 12 overs and then bowled the opposition out for just 10!

Former Test match umpire David Shepherd officially opens the new Artificial wicket in 2006. Web page here.

The 2005 the Annual President/Steve Elworthy Memorial Match was a one-sided affair ("We was robbed!" scream the Oldies) but the team photos and report can be viewed here.

In 2003, the Club went on its second Overseas pre-season Tour to Ibiza. It must have done someone some good, as the Sunday 1st XI went on to win the North Devon League division 1 title. Ibiza team picture here.

Here's a photo from one of the Club's most successful seasons - 1980

Much indebted to Martin Hockin's parents for this one - a newspaper report on the 1971 Season - the first season after the Cricket Clubs joined forces. Look out for some familiar names in the averages - go get 'em fellas!

An 1879 photo - honest! - clearly shows Westward Ho! and the cricket field (top right), by the row of houses.

More recent pictures here - the Devon League team photos for 2006.  And the final League Tables here.
