We are ECB Clubmark accreditated and all our sessions are led by qualified coaches.
Under 9s Softball Cricket
We have a thriving U9 section at the club. A lot of the group have come through our All-Stars programmes whilst others are new to the game and have simply joined to “give it a go”.
All our sessions are focused around fun whilst developing both fundamental and cricket specific skills.
We enter our U9 and U11s in the Forty Competitions run by Kent Cricket, as well as playing other local sides in festivals that are held during the summer.
“Girls Only” Cricket
We are extremely pleased with the progress of the “girls only” section at the club. We now have a group of around 20 girls that regularly attend training sessions and take part in U11 softball festivals and competitive league matches.
Such is the success, we are now looking to form an U13 girls section at the club!
