About Cricket in Herning
2 clubs play cricket in Herning: Herning Cricket Club and Ikast-Brande Cricket Club.
Herning Cricket Club trains at Sportscenter Herning, Brændgårdvej 107 on Tuesdays. Teams include Seniors and Youth Team. Herning Cricket Club is a recreational grassroots club ("breddeklub") with room for everyone, young and old, playing under the Danish Cricket Federation. The club fields women's, youth and senior teams and emphasises community and inclusion. Ikast-Brande Cricket Club trains at IBCC Cricket Ground, behind 'Hjertet', Vestergade 65, 7430 Ikast. Ikast-Brande Cricket Club (IBCC) works to spread cricket throughout Ikast-Brande Municipality and uses the sport as a platform for integration, bringing people of different backgrounds closer together.
Herning here means the Herning area, so a hall may be in Ikast-Brande, Karup or Sunds; the address on this page is the one to drive to.
The outdoor season runs through the Danish summer, and most clubs move indoors to a hall over the winter, which is often the easiest time of year to start.
Danish sport is organised in foreninger — member-run clubs rather than commercial gyms. You pay a kontingent, usually once or twice a year, and that membership is what gives you training, coaching and a place in the club. A prøvetræning — a trial session — comes first, and it costs nothing.

Training times and free trial sessions
The first session is always free, and you do not need to speak Danish or have played before.
Good to know
Do I need to speak Danish?
No. You book in English, your confirmation email is in English, and every club listed here has signed up to a platform whose whole purpose is welcoming people who are new to Denmark. Training itself may still be in Danish — say that you are new and people switch.
Is the first session really free?
Yes. A trial session booked here costs nothing. You are not signing up for a membership by booking one, and nobody asks for card details.
What should I bring?
Sportswear you can run in and trainers for grass or an indoor hall. Clubs lend bats and pads to first-timers; anything else you need is written in your confirmation email.
What happens after I book?
You get a confirmation email, and the club is told that you are coming. If you need to change the date or cancel, the email has a link for both.
Can I bring someone with me?
Yes. You can add one guest when you book, and they get their own invitation by email.
How does membership work in a Danish club?
Danish clubs are foreninger — member-run associations, not commercial gyms. After the free trial you join by paying a kontingent, usually once or twice a year, and that is what covers training and coaching for the season.
When can I start?
The outdoor season runs through the Danish summer, and most clubs move indoors to a hall over the winter, which is often the easiest time of year to start.
Which areas does this page cover?
Herning here means the Herning area: the clubs on this page train in Herning itself and in Ikast-Brande, Karup and Sunds. It is a part of Denmark with an unusually strong club culture, and several of these clubs have more to offer a beginner than their size suggests.
