St Christopher's plays Cricket in the summer term and uses the impressive facilities at Preston Nomads Cricket Club for coaching and home matches. The school is strong at cricket and each year several pupils are selected to represent the Sussex Sabres.

Murray Goodwin, the Sussex and Zimbabwean batsman, helps with the cricket coaching at all levels and the school runs an annual trip to Lord's Cricket Ground to see England play.

Women's cricket is an increasingly popular sport and older girls at St Christopher's have the opportunity to play at Preston Nomads.
