How to use Cricket Local
Your club’s Play-Cricket fixtures, results, stats and live scoreboards — filtered to the teams you star as FAV. This is the same guide as the ? help button inside the app.
What is Cricket Local Live?
The public Cricket Local app — look for the Live badge in the header. All data is pulled from public Play-Cricket pages; nothing is entered by hand. Install it on your phone for quick access on match day (see Install the app below).
Getting started
Open the Home tab and set your home club — search, pick your club, and save. Optionally choose a default team. Then open Teams and tap ★ on the sides you follow — only starred FAV teams appear on Fixtures, Results and Match Day. Home also shows your next fixture and latest result. Your club, FAV teams and preferences are saved on this device. To browse another club temporarily, use Search other clubs on Home.
Bottom navigation
Six tabs: Home (club hub with highlights), Teams (every side at your club — star ★ for FAV), Fixtures (upcoming matches for FAV teams only), Results (finished matches for FAV teams only), Players (career stats), and Live (Match Day — live scoreboards and bulletins for FAV teams).
Teams and FAV stars
The Teams tab lists every side at your home club — 1st XI, 2nd XI, juniors, Sunday teams and more. Tap ★ to mark a FAV (favourite) team. Starred sides drive Fixtures, Results and Match Day — unstarred teams stay on Teams only. Tap a team name for its full page. Club stats opens league tables and awards.
Fixtures and Results
Fixtures and Results show matches for your FAV teams only — star at least one team on Teams first. Fixtures list upcoming games with date, time, division, venue and a form guide (recent W/L/D). Results show compact scoreboards — tap a card for the full scorecard when Play-Cricket has published it. Tap the pin for Google Maps. Use Share to send a score to friends.
Players and Captains Chair
Players — pick your club, then use Search player by name (type at least 2 letters of a surname or full name). Tap a result for all-time career stats and season-by-season detail. From a profile, tap Search another player or clear the box to look up someone new. Captains Chair (top of Players) shows weekly DCCL eligibility.
Match Day (Live tab) — scoreboards and bulletins
The bottom Live tab is your Match Day hub — only for teams you have starred as FAV. A high-contrast bulletin ticker scrolls wickets, scores and milestones. Each FAV team gets a rich live scoreboard when in play — batters, bowlers, run rates and recent balls update automatically. Before kick-off, cards show which team is playing and when. Tap Refresh all or pull down to refresh. Star at least one team on Teams before match day.
Settings
Tap the gear icon in the header. Dark mode switches the app to a night-friendly theme — your choice is saved on this device. Turn on notifications for new results, live bulletins and match reminders (about one hour before a FAV fixture); allow alerts in your browser when prompted. Install App adds Cricket Local to your home screen.
Install the app
Open Settings and tap Install App, or use your browser’s install prompt. On iPhone: Share → Add to Home Screen. On Android Chrome: follow the “Add to Home screen” banner. No account is needed — your home club and FAV teams stay on the device either way.
Refreshing data
Tap ↻ in the header to reload from Play-Cricket. On mobile, pull down at the top of a tab to refresh. The status bar shows when data was last updated; if it says data may be stale, tap refresh. Live scoreboards auto-refresh during matches.
Why is some data missing?
Cricket Local only shows what Play-Cricket has published. Missing fixtures, results, form guides or live detail usually means the club or league has not posted them yet — rich live scoreboards need a published digital scorecard. Try again after scorers update Play-Cricket, then tap ↻.
Club tools for your club (availability, captains, more)
Every club can use Home, Teams, Fixtures, Results, Players and Match Day. Extra club tools — player availability from a sheet, captain team selection, Hall of Fame, Captains Chair and fantasy — are switched on per club when requested. We onboard clubs on request so each side gets the right setup.
Want these features for your club? Use the contact form with your club name and what you need. We’ll get you set up.
Is the app free? What data do you use?
Yes — Cricket Local is free for everyone and run as a not-for-profit project. We show public Play-Cricket data and only store what you provide (home club, favourites, availability, and so on). Read the full mission statement.

Mission statement
Cricket Local exists so every club, player, parent and fan can follow grassroots cricket without paywalls. We are building and running this as a not-for-profit community project — free for everyone to use.
Free for all
The app is free to open and use. There is no subscription fee for fans, players or clubs. We want local cricket information to stay accessible to everyone, not locked behind a paywall.
Public data only
Match lists, results, live scores and club details come from public Play-Cricket information that clubs and leagues already publish. We show that public data more clearly — we do not sell it, scrape private systems, or invent scores.
What you add yourself
Account features only store what you choose to provide — for example home club, favourite teams, sign-in details, and (where your club is onboarded) availability answers for captains. That input is used to run the service for you and your club, not for advertising profiles.
Not for profit
Cricket Local is not a commercial product chasing profit from club cricket. Any support we receive is intended to cover the real costs of keeping the service running — not to generate returns for owners or investors.
Helping cover the costs
Hosting, cloud services, domains, email and development time all have a real cost. To keep Cricket Local free, we have a JustGiving crowdfunding page so supporters can contribute if they wish — purely optional, with no pressure and no effect on access to the app.
Donations go toward running hosts, services and other overheads that keep the app online for clubs. Thank you to everyone who chips in.

Built for club cricket

The live product is under active development. Core browsing (home club, teams, fixtures, results, live) works across listed clubs; deeper tools are rolled out as clubs request onboarding. Read our full mission statement on free access, data and voluntary support.

Privacy & data
Cricket Local is free to use and run as a not-for-profit project. We display publicly available club cricket information primarily sourced from Play-Cricket (ECB). Match lists, results and live scores depend on what clubs and leagues publish — only that public data is shown from Play-Cricket. Account features (sign-in, home club, availability and similar) store only what you provide to run the service for you and your club. This promotional site does not collect analytics cookies beyond normal hosting logs. See our mission statement and use the contact form with any questions.
