Junior Section
Our Junior section has been growing since it was formed in 2010. It now has approximately 120 juniors of various ages from 4 to 18 with the older members playing in the adult teams. To cater for growing numbers, and give the youngest the best start into cricket, in 2021 we started Mini Crickets on Wednesday evenings for 4 to 8 year olds.
Weekly coaching sessions take place on Thursday evenings for 9-16 year olds. The juniors are split into different age groups, each assigned to one or more coaches for their group, as well as some specialised coaching for one or two at a time with our experience player coaches.
We have a number of matches against other clubs taking place throughout the week.
For the 2025 season we entered 6 teams into the Surrey Junior Cricket Championship:
U11s in Under 10-11 Smash It West
U12s in U12 Tier 3 North Central
U14s play in U14 Tier 2 Central
U14Bs play in U14 Tier 3 Sunday North
U15s play in U15 Tier 3 Sunday Central
U17s play in U17 T20 Tier 2 North
We are also arranged friendly games for the U11 and U13 age groups and hope to have more all girls games.
Coaches
We have 10 of our own qualified coaches for 2025 as well as using a professional head coach.
If any of our parents want to take up coaching or become a coaching assistant please contact one of the committee. All costs of training coaches are paid for by the club. We just want you to commit the time.
Winter nets
During the winter we have the use of the sports hall at Ewell Castle School with four indoor nets for the juniors aged 10 upwards who are using hard balls. Coaches run the sessions which have had on average 20 children attending per week.
Social Events
We will again be running various social events during the year. These are a key part of the club calendar that everybody enjoys, kids and adults alike. We usually have a few barbecues and an Awards Evening. Other events have included a quiz night and a very successful wine tasting evening; all run by volunteers to raise funds for the club.
