History
Competing in the Northamptonshire County Cricket League, Peterborough Town became League Champions as early as 1956, and continued to achieve further successes in the league up to the late 1990s. 1970 saw the formation of the Peterborough Town Cricket, Hockey & Squash Club Ltd (now known as the City of Peterborough Sports Club). The club was formed by an amalgamation of Peterborough Town Cricket Club and Peterborough Town Hockey Club, formerly based at Crawthorne Road, and the City & Counties Squash Club formerly based in Priestgate. Up until 1971 Peterborough Town Cricket Club was based at Crawthorne Road in the city centre but then relocated to Bretton Gate, presently known as the Dalrod Sports Ground. By 1999, the Northamptonshire Cricket League, as it is now known, was designated an ECB Premier League, and Peterborough Town is one of only three cricket clubs (Finedon Dolben, Old Northamptonians and Peterborough Town) to have held a constant presence in the highest level of competition for recreational club cricket in Northamptonshire, with five ECB Premiership league championship titles to their name. Peterborough Town also maintain a significant presence in the regional Sunday cricket league, the Rutland and District Cricket League, and they have achieved seven League Championship titles since 2010. Beyond League activity, Peterborough Town attracted national attention when they became a group champion in the ECB National Club Cricket Championship in 2018. High Wycombe just needed three runs to win, off the final two overs, but Peterborough Town miraculously took seven wickets in 11 balls to win the Group Championship. Club Performance
