We operate the Austin Premier Cricket League (APCL), featuring 22+ competitive teams and 400+ players.

As an official USA Cricket youth development hub, we are committed to developing young cricketers through structured coaching, competitive play, and community building.

Facilities

We proudly maintain two premier cricket grounds in Central Texas β€” the Hill Country Cricket Ground (HCCG) in Williamson County and the Hutto Cricket Ground β€” both serving as year-round hubs for league play and youth cricket development.

HCCG is the only fully irrigated cricket ground in Central Texas and stands as our flagship venue for competitive matches and major events. The Hutto Cricket Ground also hosts Austin Premier Cricket League (APCL) matches and youth games throughout the year, expanding access and playing capacity for our growing cricket community.

At HCCG, we feature top-class, professional-grade five-lane practice nets with full-length artificial turf wickets β€” among the finest training facilities in the region β€” designed to support high-performance development for both youth and adult players.
