Eastern Suburbs Cricket Club is one of the largest cricket clubs in New Zealand, based at 12 Kilbirnie Crescent in Kilbirnie, Wellington. Its junior programme draws hundreds of young players from the southern and eastern suburbs. Children in Years 0 and 1 can join Have-a-Go Super Smash sessions on Friday evenings, and Years 2 to 8 play in Cricket Wellington junior competitions on Saturday mornings. The club also runs Colts teams for former junior players and college leavers, plays annual fixtures against local colleges, and holds a post-match barbecue. Its Premier 1st XI plays in Cricket Wellington's top grade. The club has a women's team as well.
The 2026/27 season opens on Friday 6 November with the first Super Smash session, and the first Saturday games for Years 2 to 8 follow on 7 November. Junior cricket enquiries go to the junior cricket lead, Gregor Fountain, on 021 201 0446. A customer on Google calls it the biggest and best club in Wellington, praising the nets, the grass pitches and the work with young players. They say the clubhouse is modest, but it is the club's home and they love it.
