Junior Cricket
We have a very successful and constantly growing junior section and enter teams into inter-club competitions at all age groups from U11s right up to U19s. We also have thriving All Stars and Dynamos programmes on Friday nights.
We welcome both boys and girls of all abilities. Our juniors train in all disciplines and aspects of cricket and this enables them to represent the club in softball festivals or hardball league and cup matches throughout the summer, with some of the stronger players being nominated to attend the Oxfordshire County Pathway trials at the end of the season. Many of our juniors play in our senior representative teams as well.
Training
Our juniors train on Tuesday (mixed hardball for U11/13/15. NB this has moved to Tuesdays from Wednesday for 2025), Thursday (girls hardball) and Friday evenings (All Stars and Dynamos) throughout the cricket season depending on age group. Find their specific training time using the drop downs at the bottom of this web page. Indoor nets at Cothill House School are on Sunday evenings (u11-U15) begin on 2nd March and for our girls’ U15+ and women’s squads on Monday evenings from 24th February.

Girls have their own dedicated hardball training sessions on Thursdays and are also welcome to train with the relevant boys age group if they want to.
Our U11 girls will continue to play softball and so remain under the ‘Dynamos’ umbrella on Friday evenings. However if experienced enough they may wish to join the hardball group only, or do both.
We have entered our U11, U13 and U15 girls for competitive girls’ matches; girls are also welcome to play competitive games with the boys in either their own age group or ‘down’ one age group, if they prefer.
We are also entering a women’s team playing in the senior women’s competition on Sundays.
U13 hardball girls only training sessions for years 7 and 8 plus younger hardball cricketers will take place on Thursday nights from 5.30-6.30pm from 24th April until 27th July.
U15 girls will train alongside older our women from 6.45-8pm also on these Thursdays.
We will be entering teams in the Oxfordshire U11 softball and U13 and U15 hardball inter-club girls competitions. Girls are also eligible to play in the mixed team competitions (where regulations permit them to play both with their own age group, but also one age group younger).
