 Washington CC Sports Quiz team started life as the Philadelphia CC B team - formed when  Philadelphia had enough members to create two teams.

 The Philadelphia B team continued to use the Bunker Hill ground as their home base until  2006, when the members decided to move to a venue in Washington - as the majority of  players had at sometime played for Washington CC, it was decided that it would be an  appropriate home for them.

 Whilst new facilities at the cricket club were under construction, the Stella Maris club in  Washington and the Museum Vaults in Sunderland were used as home venues, during the  2006-7 season.

 The 2007-8 season saw the team move to their current venue at the home of the Durham  Coast League team Washington CC.
