To be eligible to play in any of the sides above players need to be under the age limit on 1st September in the preceding year  ( For example: to be eligible to play for the Under 15 side in 2009 you must be under the age of 15 on 1st September 2008)

The Club is very safety conscious, particularly when it comes to youth development cricket, and where it used to be optional with parental consent for batsman and wicket keepers to wear helmets, it is now compulsory.

League games will be played on Sunday mornings for the U13’s starting at 10.00am and Monday evenings starting at 6.00pm for the Under 15's.  Under 11 games will generally be played on Tuesday evenings starting at 6.00pm.  All fixtures and dates appear on the 2009 fixture card which can be obtained either at the Club, or through Mike Hemmings (Hon Sec).

All aspects of the game of cricket will be covered in the Friday night coaching sessions of which advice and guidance will be provided by qualified coaches in conjunction with other players and members in the Club.

All players are encouraged to wear cricket ‘whites’ for both games and practice sessions, and where possible white trainers as opposed to black.  Club caps and shirts are available through Rachelle Ayland & Helen Watkins for the coming season, therefore, it is advisable to check availability at regular intervals.

If you require any additional information please contact either myself, Laurence or Rachelle on either of the contact numbers above.
