Junior Cricket
Junior cricket is extremely important to Woodhouse Grange, and we are very proud to have a really good reputation for helping young cricketers develop their skills.
Many players in our senior teams joined the club as juniors, and the main reason why we are one of the very few clubs able to regularly field four Saturday teams is because of our investment in junior cricket.
New to cricket?
During the summer we run the ECB All Stars (5-8 year olds) and Dynamos (8-11 year olds) programmes to introduce youngsters to cricket:
Teams
We field teams at all junior levels from under 9s to under 18s, playing in regional league and cup competitions.
Coaching
Our ECB qualified coaches run indoor nets at an external venue during pre-season, with outdoor coaching sessions held at the club on Friday evenings during the summer.
Progression
Juniors aged 13+ are eligible to play adult league cricket on Saturdays. Our 3rd & 4th XIs have a high proportion of teenagers, with the 2nd XI also featuring players within this age bracket. Some exceptional talents have even debuted for the first team whilst still in their teens.
