The Staffordshire Gentlemen club was formed in1904 at the Swan Hotel, Stafford. The object was to provide a higher form of cricket for amateurs who might not be considered good enough to be included in the county team. The scheme adopted for the working of the club was that the matches should be played on different grounds in the county, and that gentlemen entitled to become members should be those possessing a birth qualification and a bona-fide residence in the county; the committee were given power to admit gentlemen who in their opinion were Staffordshire men for the time being.
