About Junior cricket

Our junior section runs coaching and matches for boys and girls from Under 9 to Under 15. Players are grouped by school year, and each age group trains once a week through the summer.

From Under 11 upwards, players take part in Gloucestershire junior league matches on midweek evenings. Our coaches work with every player, whether they're new to the game or pushing for county selection.

Coaches & contacts

Safeguarding

Our Club Welfare Officer is Name TBC. If you have any concern about a child at the club, please get in touch.

We never publish photos of named children on this website.

Questions

Which age group will my child play in?

Age groups follow the school year, using age on 1 September before the season. If you're not sure, put your child's age in the enquiry form and the coach will let you know.

What does my child need to bring?

Trainers or flat-soled shoes, comfortable sports clothes and a water bottle. The club has bats, pads, helmets and balls to borrow, so there's no need to buy kit before your child has tried it.

How much does junior membership cost?

Junior subscriptions are set each year at the AGM, with a discount for brothers and sisters. Current prices will be published here before the season (placeholder).

Will my child get to play matches?

Every player who wants to play matches will get games. From Under 11 we enter league teams, and younger players take part in friendly festivals during the season.

Who looks after safeguarding at the club?

Our Club Welfare Officer is responsible for safeguarding and is the person to speak to about any concern. All coaches and volunteers working with children hold an up-to-date DBS check. Contact details are on this page and on our Safeguarding page.

Something else? Ask in the form, or see joining the club.
