Friendly
Cricket suitable for all ages, matches throughout Sussex and into
Hampshire. We run one Saturday and one Sunday XI playing some of
the best sides in the area, mostly with reciprocal home and away
matches.
Some of the matches are against League sides when they have window
in their League fixtures, but all our games are played under friendly
rules with time rather than fixed overs. .
Home games for the
majority of the season start
at 2:30pm with an
interval between innings for tea at 5 pm and 20 overs in the last
hour starting at 6:30pm.
After the match we retire to the HENTY
PUB (01 903 241 254)
which is located just north of the Railway crossing in Ferring Village.
Directions
to Ground
Follow the enclosed directions or
alternatively, type the postcode (BN12 5DY)
which is the nearest one for the Little Twitten recreation ground,
Sea lane, Ferring, Sussex. Then enter your own postcode into the
AA route planner on the AA's
website for your own personal directions.
From the NORTH
Travel south down the A24 Horsham road passing through Findon Valley
on the way to the roundabout which joins the A27 Brighton/Arundel
road.
Go straight
across the roundabout travelling south towards Tarring (rather than
turning west onto the A27).
Now follow
the directions from (T) below:
From the EAST:
Travel along the A27 (upper Brighton road) towards Worthing, at
the large roundabout at the top of Braodwater Green (now with the
added feature in 2005 of traffic lights! ) take the 2nd exit continuing
west along the A27 towards Arundel. At the next roundabout turn
1st left, south towards Tarring..
(T) Continue south (watch out for the speed
camera) and after approx. 1 mile turn right at the Thomas a'Becket
pub traffic lights. You are now travelling west along the A259,
after 1 mile the road becomes a dual-carrageway , cross the first
roundabout and past palatine park on you left you will then come
to another roundabout. Continue straight across still travelling
west on the A259 and you will then come to another roundabout with
a pedestrian bridge above and college on you right.
Take the 1st turning left and you are now travelling
south on Goring Street.
Now follow the directions from (F) below.
From the WEST:
assuming you are on the A27 travelling east from Arundel. About
2 miles before entering Worthing you will notice a large intersection
on the dual-carrageway with a bridge over the road. Take the left
slip road just before the bridge signposted to patching/goring/Ferring
etc.
Travel over
the bridge and take the first exit signposted for Ferring/Goring.
You should now be travelling south down Titnore Road, this is a
narrow winding road which passes through a forest area and after
approx. 1 mile you will pass a tennis club (west Worthing club)
on the left and further south you will see views down to the sea.
At the first
roundabout , cross the A259 (college is on the left) and travel
south onto Goring Street.
(F)
the road travels south over a railway bridge above the main railway
line (avoid the level crossing turning on the right) and comes to
a mini roundabout with "FADS" and a garage on your left-hand
side.
Take the 3rd
exit right signposted Ferring and travel west along Goring Way.
Do not be tempted to take the first left turning as this takes you
to Goring Cricket Club, but continue west along Goring Way and after
approx. 1 mile take the last turning left (south), before entering
Ferring Village , this is Sea Lane FERRING.
There is a
junior school immediately on you left hand side and approx. 500yards
down the road you will notice a farm gate on you right. This is
the entrance to the Little Twitten Recreation Ground.
NOTE: If you
arrive too early you may find this padlocked, please be patient
as all the parking for cricket is within the ground on the right
and there is very limited parking on the road.
The FCC captains
and several committee members have keys to the ground and one of
them will appear probably about 30 mins before the start of play.
From the South
- you must be desperate, live in France or like the sea !
