The club also uses the royal crown as its emblem. It plays a full list of fixtures each season, mostly playing on weekends at its Frogmore ground. Although the club's members are mostly Royal Household staff supplemented by local cricketers if they are short-handed, members of the British royal family have also played for it. In 1905, two future kings, Edward VIII (then Prince Edward) and George VI (then Prince Albert) played on opposite sides in a match between the club and Eton College. More recently, Prince Philip has played for the club and served as its President since 1953 until his death. Queen Elizabeth II is the club's Patron. (en)
