- Forfeits/rewards in team – donate £5 for every five wicket haul or fifty
- Cricket cake competition – design and make the best cricket-themed cake
- Retro cricket fancy dress cricket match
- "Shine for Chance to Shine" car wash
- Odd jobs – donate the money raised from serving tea to supporters, doing the sightscreen/scoreboard/boundary markers etc
- Second hand cricket clothing/equipment sale
- CricOlympics - an afternoon of fun races and cricket competitions, such as cricket ball throw and hit the stumps
- Cricket-themed summer fete
- Tug of war with the club’s boundary rope
- Sponsored cricket fun run/walk
- Family member matches - play as a family team or two families in a team
- Quiz night
- Fancy dress/fun matches: dress up as your favourite cricketers/cricket characters (e.g. Merv Hughes, Don Bradman, Shane Warne, WG Grace etc), Victorian cricket match. Grow a WG Grace beard
- World record attempts: world’s largest scone/cake/sandwich/cup of tea, world’s biggest cricket tea, longest game, most people throwing a cricket ball at the same time, oldest team vs youngest team, most sixes in a game
- Arrange match involving members of the team with the same name
