We are pleased to announce the Sedgwick Cricket Club junior outdoor training sessions for the 2023 season. There is a slight change this year to the junior programme as we are excited to be launching All Stars, the ECB national programme for 5-8 year olds. This will replace our previous U9 programme and is aimed at total beginners / or only one year of cricket experience.
Note: If your child is Under8/Under9 and has played cricket at a club for two or more years, then please contact me to see whether or not they should attend All Stars or our U11 programme.
All Stars Programme (Age 5-8 years old)
Starts 8th May 18:00-19:00 and runs as an 8 week programme. To sign up for this programme, you need to head to the ECB website (England and Wales Cricket Board) and search for Sedgwick under the All Stars Cricket Centre. Link here: (https://www.ecb.co.uk/play/all-stars). Payment is made through the ECB and is a national flat rate of £40 per child. No additional membership fee is required for Sedgwick.
All other Junior Programmes
Starting week commencing 24th April we will be running the following sessions:
Monday Evenings (Summer term only)
Under 11s - 18:30 - 20:00 (for both softball and hardball)

Membership (not for All Stars)
I've attached the Junior Membership form and the membership fees for this season will be set as follows:
- £35 per child
- £55 for two children
- £70 for three or more.
Please could you bring the membership form completed to help with the admin on your first attendance. Membership for juniors in All Stars is paid direct through the ECB.
Parents - Social membership is also available for those who would like to become a club member but not play, and this is priced at £20 for the year. If you are interested in playing senior cricket this year and dusting off that old cricket bat, then please speak to us directly.
