Otley Cricket Club

Otley Cricket Club is a cricket club in Otley, West Yorkshire, England. It was formed in 1820, and was one of the founder members of Airedale-Wharfedale Senior Cricket League, in whose Division A the club is still playing. The club is said to be "one of the oldest cricket clubs in the country".
The club has three senior teams running, with junior sides aged from Under 9 to Under 17.
The ground is located at Cross Green, Otley. The ground is adjacent to Otley R.U.F.C., of which the club uses the parking facilities. The ground has undergone extensive improvement over the last five years, including a full refurbishment of the clubhouse. Also added is a fully electronic scoreboard and new netting facilities. Various walls and fences have also been replaced resulting in one of the most scenic grounds in the league, and one that all members are proud of.
Local solicitors, Atkinson Dacre, are the main sponsors of the club.
