| Founded in 1856, Folkestone Cricket Club recently celebrated its 150th anniversary in 2006. Folkestone were one of the founder members of the Kent Cricket League which was founded in 1971 and originally consisted of just two divisions. (1st XI and 2nd XI)! The clubs greatest achievement were becoming Kent League champions for the first time in 1989 and, when the Kent League was replaced with the newly structured Kent Premier League in the latter parts of the 90’s; Folkestone Cricket Club boasted the all-time leading run-scorers in both the 1st XI and 2nd XI Kent League divisions, namely Jim Howgego and David Curran respectively. Folkestone Cricket Club also added the Kent Premier League title to their list of honours in 2001. Throughout the years Folkestone Cricket Club has produced and been represented by some many fine players, some of whom have gone on to represent Kent County Cricket Club – in the 1950’s and 1960’s and in some cases representing England. John Spanswick, Jim Howgego in the 1970’s and currently James Tredwell, Kent & England Wicketkeeper Geraint Jones. | ||
