Life Members


The following is a proud list of those individuals who have contributed significantly to the Wistow Cricket Club and as such have been bestowed the honour of Life Membership (which requires a minimum of 25 years of service to the club; there is also a limit on the number of living Life Members allowed at any given time).  To these individuals both past and present we thank you for what you have given to our club and making it what it is today.
