The club's main focus is on enjoying the game of cricket and fostering a sense of camaraderie among its members. The club promotes teamwork and places emphasis on the team's success rather than individual achievements.
The club welcomes new members who are interested in joining a social group of like-minded cricketers. All active team members are chosen based on their availability throughout the season, ensuring that everyone gets a chance to play. Non-active team members are also encouraged to participate in the club's social activities and events.
Ferndown Strollers Cricket Club primarily plays its home games at the Hamworthy Club on Magna Road. The venue provides ample free parking and boasts a well-stocked bar. However, due to the club's commitments, it may occasionally use other grounds for matches. Matches typically start from May onwards and continue until August or early September, unless otherwise specified.
The club's practise net evenings take place at Hurn Sports Centre, adjacent to Bournemouth Airport, starting from February.
In addition to cricket matches, Ferndown Strollers Cricket Club organises various social events throughout the year, including golf, T10 pin, skittles, themed dinners, evenings, and barbecues. These events provide members with an opportunity to bond and socialise outside of cricket. The club also actively participates in charity work.
The club operates on a pay-as-you-attend basis for all matches and social events. There are no membership fees, and players are encouraged to join whenever they can. In terms of insurance, the club has limited coverage, which is included in the match fee. However, all players must adhere to the club's playing rules and terms & conditions to ensure safe play and good conduct.
