The Lindfield District Cricket Club was founded on the 18th July 1923 when a respected group of local Lindfield District residents met at the Chess Hall at Pacific Highway Lindfield and decided to create a cricket club for the enjoyment and advancement of cricket in the area. The idea had its genesis as a result of WW1 when local Lindfield males were engaged in the heat of battle on the fields of France. Such were the horrific circumstances of that engagement that these soldiers decided if they ever were able to return home they would create a cricket club so that their children and descendants could enjoy the simple pleasures of life, including playing the greatest game of all.
