College Field
College Field
The home of Elizabeth College and, for many years, of island cricket.
The old ground with its Victorian-style pavilion staged the island's biggest matches for the best part of a century until the Guernsey Cricket Board adopted the KGV as its flagship ground on the completion of its grass square.
Many of the finest cricketers to grace the glorious game have played at the 'CF': Sir Leonard Hutton, Gary Sobers, Gordon Greenidge, Barry Richards, Colin Cowdrey, David Gower and Mike Gatting among them.
At the heart of the beautiful tree-lined ground is the quaint old pavilion with its honours board to commemorate the centurions in the long history of Elizabeth College v. Victoria College (Jersey) annual fixtures.
