Sileby Town Cricket Club | Leicestershire
Jun
A match-day kitchen, built before the first ball.
A complete turnkey commercial kitchen — designed, supplied and installed for the start of the new cricket season, on time and in full.
Established in 1895, Sileby Town Cricket Club is a historic community sports venue with a deep local following and a busy summer of fixtures ahead.
The club leadership recognised the need to upgrade their existing pavilion catering facilities — to provide better service to players, members, and visiting supporters on busy match days and during weekend community events.
The club required a professional, durable, and highly efficient kitchen — one that could handle rapid food and drink service during peak match-day intervals.
Local sports clubs rely heavily on volunteers and temporary staff, so the team needed an intuitive layout that was easy to clean and fully compliant with commercial health & safety standards. And the entire installation faced one immovable constraint.
“Hand over a fully operational kitchen before the first ball of the new season was bowled.”
The Brief, In One LineA complete turnkey kitchen, fabricated around the workflow.
CaterFix designed, supplied, and installed the entire space using premium, commercial-grade equipment and custom stainless-steel fabrications.
High-performance, ready in seconds
A heavy-duty Turbofan convection oven for rapid cooking, a countertop StarUp griddle for match-day hot food, and a high-capacity Lincat water boiler so staff can serve hot drinks instantly through every busy interval.
Cold storage and fast turnaround
A high-capacity, upright Polar refrigerator keeps food stored safely, paired with an under-counter Maidaid commercial dishwasher for rapid turnaround of glassware and crockery on the busiest of days.
A workspace that flows
A robust stainless steel extraction canopy keeps air quality safe, while custom prep tables, secure wall-mounted cupboards, a dedicated hand-wash station and a deep pot sink with pre-rinse spray arm make every task efficient.
A wide pass-through, by design
The layout centres on a wide pass-through hatch, letting staff serve food and drink straight from the prep area to clubhouse guests — seamlessly cutting queues during peak times.
Delivered on time and in full. Two months into active operation, the kitchen has completely vindicated the club’s choice.
Faster service
The Lincat boiler and open pass-through layout have drastically cut wait times for spectators at the bar and counter.
Confident volunteers
Club volunteers run the commercial Maidaid dishwasher and intuitive appliances with total confidence — no professional kitchen experience required.
Effortless hygiene
Seamless stainless worktops and wall-mounted storage make post-match cleanup quick — perfect food hygiene standards, minimal effort.
Sileby Town CC now boasts a modern, professional-grade catering space that satisfies stringent safety standards — while helping the club maximise its match-day revenue.
