Past Players Day 2026
Join us for a truly special day as we celebrate the past players of Ilkley Cricket Club on Saturday 25th July 2026.
Our 1st XI will be hosting local rivals Olicanian CC, providing the perfect backdrop for a day of great cricket, familiar faces, and shared memories.
We warmly invite all past players, members, friends, and family to come together and be part of the occasion.
Past players will be treated to a VIP cricket tea, which will be served during the afternoon.
Following the match, we will come together for a short and heartfelt ceremony to honour the life of a much-loved former player, and ICC legend, Michael Clegg.
We will be scattering his ashes at the ground he proudly called home. A fitting tribute in the company of those who knew him.
📆 Saturday 25th July 2026
🕜 13:00 onwards
🏏 Ilkley CC 1st XI vs Olicanians
