Kentisbeare CC was founded in 1885. For the first 100 years the club played a number of friendly fixtures against local sides, touring teams and representative sides, (including a regular fixture against Exeter City FC) as well as playing in Cup competitions. In 1965 the club won its first peice of silverware; The 'Tiverton Town CC Knockout Trophy'. In 1985 the club joined the East Devon League and started playing league cricket as well as continuing with friendly and cup fixtures. In 1988 The 'Whiteways Cup' was added to the trophy cabinet. A few years later the club entered a second team in the league as well.
2000 saw the club set up its Junior section, which has not only achieved great success, but continues to thrive. Several players have also gone on to represent Devon in age group squads as well as the full Devon side. In 2000 the Second X1 won Division 4 of the East Devon League, with the First X1 winning 'D Division East' in 2001. The First X1 weren't promoted however as promotion and relegation was suspended that year due to foot and mouth. In 2004 the Second X1 won their division promoting them into the county wide C Division, where they stayed for 3 years. The same year Kentisbeare played a Somerset X1 for the benefit season of Keith Parsons. Players included overseas star Jamie Cox, England international Ian Blackwell, former pros Jason Kerr, Matt Bulbeck and Peter Robinson, with England legends Marcus Trescothick and Andy Caddick watching. 2013 saw the club winning the 'Whiteways Cup' for a second time with the First X1 following up this success the following year with promotion from the E Division. 2018 saw the 1st X1 again promoted to D Division East. The club continues to grow through All Stars Cricket (ECB National Programme) where children as young as five can now play cricket at the club. As the club moves forwards improvements continue to be made to the ground and pavilion keeping Kentisbeare CC heading in the right direction’.
