Bright Cricket Guide

Write for us

We welcome considered pitches about rural cricket and the life around it. A strong proposal has a definite subject, a clear reason for readers to care and a scope suited to an evergreen article rather than a match report.

Subjects we welcome

Pitch ideas about grounds and their settings, club customs, seasonal play, matchday objects or the local stories attached to cricket places. We are especially interested in subjects that help a general reader notice something specific without assuming specialist knowledge.

A useful pitch

Tell us the proposed angle, the main point the article will make, the kind of reader it serves and what information or experience supports it. Mention any important limits or uncertainties. We favour original, clear writing that distinguishes personal observation from fact and avoids treating a single club's custom as universal.

Send a proposal

Send your pitch through the Contact page and choose the editorial question option. Please do not send a complete article unless requested. We cannot promise a response time or publication, and a proposal should not include confidential material.

Our point of view

A match belongs to its place

We look beyond the score to the ground, the people and the seasonal habits gathered around village cricket.
