Score Cards

We are pleased to annouce that work has begun on converting the paper based score cards from every single Ulster Grasshopper game to digital! With over 100 score cards to convert - It may take a while but work is underway. When complete they will all appear here, live on the site for you to re-live golden cricket memories.


Centuries - 100 Club100 Club

Over the 34 year history of the Ulster Grasshoppers, only a select few have scored the big 100 or more.

Freddie Ashton, Colin Magowan, Alan Waite, Jonathan Terrett, Gareth Mckee and Lee Nelson. 

These men go into the record books. The last Grasshopper Century was in India in 2009 - who will be next to achieve this great feat?
