Bowls

We are a small, friendly, Crown Green Bowls Club. In 2023 the Club will be running eight teams (1 Men's and 7 Mixed),. There is a programme of club competitions, and organised social bowling and social events. New members are always welcome, whether they wish to be involved in club teams or only in social bowling. Members can use the green whenever there is no match on it. Over the winter months, the club enters teams in several indoor leagues at the Alfreton Bowls Centre and organises club social bowling sessions there. It organises a Social morning on Fridays as part of the Warm Spaces Initiative.

Ladies Hockey

Belper Ladies Hockey Club was established in 1920 and has grown into one of the most successful clubs in the Midlands. Our junior achievements at Club through to National level, keep us at the forefront of Junior Hockey. We have 5 ladies teams - our Ladies 1st XI play in the National League.

We run junior age group teams, ‘Back to Hockey’ and have a thriving Mini Hockey group. We also join forces with our friends in the Men’s Hockey Club to play some very social Mixed Hockey, during the summer. We pride ourselves in creating a family orientated atmosphere, a welcoming attitude and our ability to offer a range hockey to suit all ages and abilities.

Cricket

The Club, founded in 1880, has been a member of the Derbyshire County Cricket League for the last 25 years, and in 2017 will field three Senior Teams in the League. The newly formed Third XI is a development team looking to bridge the gap between Junior Cricket and the longer form of Senior Cricket. We also run a thriving Junior Section with seven teams playing in the Notts & Derbys Youth Cricket League, from Under 11 (soft & hardball cricket) to Under 17. Between May and Mid-July there is normally a Junior game on four evenings out of five, with the fifth evening being used for training.

Tennis

We are a friendly Club, with 3 Floodlit hard courts and 2 Grass courts; new members, both Juniors and Adults, of any standard of play, are welcome to join us. We have a good coaching team and we hold regular coaching sessions for Juniors. Adult Coaching is on Monday night for those that wish to improve their standards. Our Adult Club nights are Tuesdays and Thursdays start at 7pm and we play in all weathers throughout the year. We have 6 teams which play in the Derby Summer League and 4 teams in the Winter League. We have several social arrangements during the year including Tournaments, Quiz Nights and Dinners.
