As a sport, Cricket has a reputation for sometimes being slow to embrace change and this seems to be true of the early years of local Bristol cricket.With evidence of matches being played in 1752, the movement towards some form of organisation progressed somewhat sedately. It took another 140 years before the Bristol & District Cricket Association was formed by a group of local clubs, many of whom are still in existence today.This book attempts to chart the BDCA through from its formation to the inception of league cricket in 1973. Along the way we acknowledge the support of many clubs and the efforts of so many outstanding individuals, without whose efforts the Association as we know it would be so much poorer.
