Junior Cricketers Age Managers and Coaches

What do I do first?

• Become a member of the club.
• Complete and return the membership form (including ALL sheets) along with your subscription. Cheques made payable to Gomersal Cricket Club please.
• Remember if you are not a paid up member you are not insured and therefore cannot play.
• After that?
• Come to the club and meet your team mates in your age group. Get to know your Coaches.
• Ensure you have the correct kit for both cricket practice and match days as directed by your Coach. The coach can help provide or loan equipment, if required.
• Then it’s simple practice, play and enjoy your cricket!

Kit
For matches:

• All your personal kit should be marked with your name.
• Clean comfortable fitting footwear, toiletries and a towel if required.
• Gomersal Cricket Club shirt and cricket trousers.

For cricket practice:
Under 11’s-17’s

• White shirt, tracksuit bottoms or cricket trousers and trainers during practice sessions. Should also bring a cricket bat and a cricket ball (Under 11 & 13’s 4¾ oz)(Under 15 & 17’s 5¼ oz).
• Protective equipment including an abdominal protector (box) and a helmet fitted with a grille or faceguard MUST be used.
• Parents are responsible for ensuring the face guard grille is adjusted correctly to prevent a ball from penetrating the viewing area left between the helmet neb and the top edge of the grille. Any failure to comply may lead to unnecessary delay, which in turn could reduce time allocated for the incoming batsman.
• If unsure, please ask coach for advice.

Under 9’s
Cricket white top/ tracksuit bottoms and trainers.
All youths or juniors:

• Do not wear any form of jewellery.
• Do not bring any unnecessary valuables.
• Do not bring any unmarked kit!

Sportsmanship and attitude
Players must remember that they are representing Gomersal Cricket Club at matches both home and away. They should show courtesy and good manners to opponents, officials and other Coaches at all times.

BAD BEHAVIOR WILL NOT BE TOLERATED AND MAY LEAD TO SUSPENSION OF MEMBERSHIP & DISMISSAL FROM THE CLUB
