Il campo di Cricket Lord ospita una serie di squadre, tra cui il più importante è il MCC (Marylebone Cricket Club). Il MCC ial momento è l'organo direttivo del gioco del cricket. Qui vengono giocate tutte le finali più importanti e anche quelli un pò bizzarri. Il modo migliore oer vedere il Lord's (e di iniziare ad imparare a giocare al cricket se non lo si conosce) è di fare un giro per il campo.

Il Lord's Cricket Ground è stato scelto come sede delle gare di tiro con l'arco in occasione dei giochi olimpici di Londra del 2012.
