The Oxton Cricket Club was formed in 1875 after a meeting of gentlemen on 27 September 1875 at the Queens Arm’s Hotel.

The gentlemen proposed that a cricket club be formed at Oxton and that a committee be appointed.

The club's first team plays in the Cheshire County Cricket League, which is one of the ECB Premier Leagues that are the highest level of the amateur, recreational sport in England and Wales.

Townfield Lane has hosted Minor Counties matches for Cheshire County Cricket Club for many years, plus List A matches in the NatWest Trophy.
