Weetwood Playing Fields is a sports facility of the University of Leeds located in the Leeds suburb of Weetwood, West Yorkshire, England.
Cricket
Among the facilities are a cricket ground, which is used by Leeds/Bradford MCCU. The team played a first-class match at the ground against Yorkshire in 2019,[1] which resulted in a Yorkshire victory by an innings and 151 runs.[2] The ground was scheduled to host a further first-class match between Leeds/Bradford MCCU and Warwickshire in 2020,[1] however this was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in England. With the loss of first-class status for MCC University matches from the 2021 season onward, first-class cricket at the Playing Fields has ended for the foreseeable future.[3]
