Atlanta Badminton Club brings fast-paced, fully enclosed indoor box cricket to Duluth, Georgia. Multiple purpose-built lanes, expert coaching, player matching for new members, and recreational leagues — year-round.
Atlanta Badminton Club (ABC) is home to multiple purpose-built indoor box cricket lanes in Duluth, Georgia — one of the only dedicated indoor cricket facilities in the greater Atlanta metro area. Nestled within our multi-sport complex on Buford Hwy, our cricket lanes serve Gwinnett County's thriving South Asian sports community, as well as players from Norcross, Suwanee, Lawrenceville, Sugar Hill, and Johns Creek who have long searched for a quality indoor cricket venue near Atlanta.
Indoor box cricket is a self-contained, high-action format of the game designed specifically for enclosed spaces. Each lane features a fully netted enclosure, regulation-length pitch markings, turf-surface flooring, and integrated scoring zones on side and back walls. The box format uses modified rules that reward aggressive batting, creative bowling, and sharp fielding — delivering the thrill of cricket in a compact, fast-moving game that newcomers grasp quickly and veterans never tire of. A typical indoor box cricket match is 6–10 overs per side, meaning you can fit a complete competitive game into 60–90 minutes.
The indoor environment offers enormous practical advantages for Atlanta-area cricket fans. Georgia's humid summers and unpredictable spring weather make outdoor cricket scheduling frustrating. At ABC, our fully climate-controlled facility ensures that play is never rained out, heat-cancelled, or wind-disrupted. Lights are calibrated for optimal ball-tracking visibility. The turf surface is maintained to provide consistent bounce and reliable pacing throughout the year. Indoor cricket at ABC means your game happens — rain, shine, or heatwave.
ABC's cricket community includes recreational players meeting weekly for league nights, corporate groups booking lanes for team-building events, families celebrating IPL match days with friendly batting challenges, and serious players using lanes for focused batting or bowling practice sessions. Whether you are an experienced club cricketer looking for structured competitive play, or someone who grew up watching cricket and has always wanted to try batting properly, ABC's indoor cricket lanes are your starting point.
Purpose-built fully netted lanes with turf surfaces, regulation pitch markings, and wall-integrated scoring zones. Lanes available for singles practice, team nets, and competitive match formats.
Our coaches cover batting technique, bowling mechanics, and fielding skills. Individual and group coaching sessions are available for players at all levels — from first-timers to competitive club cricketers.
Solo players are matched with similarly-skilled partners for pickup games, nets sessions, and league team placement. We build teams for players who want to join a league but don't have a full squad.

Intermediate–AdvancedBox cricket originated as a way to bring the sport indoors and into compact urban spaces without sacrificing the core excitement of batting and bowling. The game is played in a fully enclosed lane — think a long, wide corridor with high nets on all sides. Runs are scored by hitting marked zones on the walls and floor inside the box. Hitting the net typically carries a penalty, which adds a strategic element absent from outdoor cricket.
A standard indoor box cricket match uses 6–10 overs per side, with 4–6 players per team. The bowling crease is shorter than a standard cricket pitch (typically around 18–20 yards) which makes deliveries arrive faster and demands quicker reaction from batters. The compact format produces constant action — every ball has a scoring opportunity, and quick wickets can flip a match in moments. It is genuinely one of the most exciting cricket formats to both play and watch.
The most common frustration for recreational cricketers is organizing enough players for a game. At ABC, our complimentary player and team matching service means you never have to wait for a full squad. We connect solo players and new members with teams, partners, and league slots from day one.
A brief batting and bowling evaluation helps us place you accurately — whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced club cricketer wanting a competitive league slot.
Solo players are placed onto league teams each season. We balance teams by skill to ensure competitive, enjoyable matches for everyone — no ringers, no mismatches.
Members can post lane availability and invite others for pickup games, bowling practice, or batting net sessions at any time of day using our physical and online board.
Monthly introductory cricket events bring together new members, first-time players, and long-time members for casual lane sessions, rulebook walkthroughs, and team-building games.
