Kent County Cricket Club is one of the eighteen first-class county clubs within the domestic cricket structure of England and Wales, representing the historic county of Kent. A Kent county cricket team has existed since 1709, initially managed by individual patrons and other organisations. Various attempts were made to establish a formal county club, and for many years two such clubs co-existed before merging on 6 December 1870 to form the present club, which is based at the St Lawrence Ground in Canterbury.
