Since its establishment, Eastern Suburbs Cricket Club has become a cornerstone of the Wellington cricket community and one of the largest cricket clubs in New Zealand. With approximately 10 senior teams and 36 junior teams competing each season, our club is dedicated to fostering talent and promoting the spirit of cricket across all age groups. Our commitment to excellence is demonstrated by our numerous accolades. The prestigious Royal Visit Cup, awarded to the club with the most championship points in a season, has been won by ESCC 24 times. Furthermore, during the 2013/2014 season, we were awarded the Norwood Club Championship for having the highest average points per team. Our Premier side has made nine appearances at the Club Nationals and were crowned National Club Champions in both 2016 and 2017.
