Sandyford Cricket Club

History of Sandyford CC
Sandyford Cricket Club was founded in 1984 in the Dublin suburb of Sandyford. The club's home ground is located in Marlay Park, a 300-acre public park, about nine kilometers from Dublin city center. The club is a member of the Leinster Cricket Union and currently fields three adult teams across various divisions.


 * The first team is in division 6
 * The second team is in division 12
 * The third team is in division 19

Location crisis 2022
The current location of Sandyford CC in Marlay Park is also the location where the Longitude Festival is held each year. After the 3 concerts and 3 days of Longitude Festival in 2022, the outfield was left in ruins and in a state that was unfit to play cricket. This gained significant social media traction.

As of September 2022, Sandyford Cricket Club and the Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown County Council are working to move the cricket ground to a new location in keeping with the Marlay Park Master Plan.
