Welcome to ARCS

What is ARCS?

ARCS is the Adastral Recreational Cricket Society.

Where is it?

ARCS is centred on Adastral Park, just outside Ipswich, and aims to provide cricket, primarily of a fun kind, for those based at the Park (and also various BT sites in the area) who do not play regularly.

Who can play?

For guidance on who can play please see the eligibility rule.

This web site is still a work in progress so do not be surprised if something doesn't behave quite as you would expect. If you spot any bugs or inaccuracies, or can think of any essential improvements let me know.

Plate Final

Both finals are at the "usual" Notcutts Ground (as the Ivry St pitch is not available for the finals this year), and the result is purely on runs scored (NOT points).

Having independent officials at the finals is a long standing ARCS tradition, is something that helps differentiate the finals from other games we play during the season - if you are able & willing to officiate at either final (and earn a FREE pint and meal afterwards), please contact Chris (chris.b.roberts@bt.com).
