Qualified Coaches
The coaches of our kids cricket teams are Level 2 qualified. We also ensure that our coaches stay up-to-date with their DBS checks.
Along with being thoroughly trained for the coaching role, the majority of our coaches are active players. That means if any of your children look to play adult cricket in the future, they will have a familiar face to look to.
Training
Throughout the season, our coaches will tailor each session to your children. That is an excellent way of developing and improving the skills of each child.
The kids cricket training is perfect for making new friends and developing lifelong social skills. Plus, it is a way of staying active through the summer months.
We invite the parents of our children to get involved if they are interested. That provides an excellent opportunity to spend some valuable time with your child while learning interesting training techniques.
Games
We understand that kids love games where they are actively involved. That is why our teams play in a league competitively against other teams from around the area*. That is an excellent way of creating a team spirit and developing some essential life skills.
The kids cricket games usually take place midweek or on a Sunday morning.
*Some of our younger age groups will play against teams from around the area in a non-competitive league.
