Sadly, there is no stoolball club of any description in Chailey. I am secretary of the Cricket Club and am trying to re-light interest in the Stoolball Club with whom we ground-shared for 60,70,80 years before their demise.

The stoolball equipment has been stored: wickets, boundary markers and rope, a marking out board as well as some old bats and balls.

I have just submitted a piece for the Chailey News inviting anyone who wishes to reform the club to get in touch. Obviously with such a length of history it would be sad if the Stoolball Club were to disappear completely.

Although, I am secretary of the Cricket Club I have invited people, in the first instance, to get in touch with me.

Stoolball was in a way part of my family - 3 aunts used to play, my ex wife and her aunt used to play as well as some other relatives throughout the years. It would be nice if another dynasty was created.

When and where

This team plays at Chailey sports ground, North Chailey.
