A Recipe for Developing a Junior Cricketer

1 bunch of Children - as varied an age range as you can attract

A healthy sprinkling of coaches and helpers - mix experience with enthusiasm

Whole heap of activities - must include running about, thwacking, hurling and dressing up in all sorts of odd gear.

The Kew CC Junior section have been working on this recipe with great success. As a result, we have grown very quickly with over 150 boys and girls from 5 to 17 years old, and 6 teams :- u9s to u17s.

Last time you helped us raise money towards a second mobile batting cage so that our hardball cricketers could practice in safety. This year we are raising funds towards 2 new bowling machines, battery kits, balls and stumps.

#1 Bowling Machine is the Junior Bola version. Ideal for our u11s to u13s.

#2 Bowling Machine is the Paceman Original S2. Ideal for u9s/10s and those new to hardball cricket.

These machines will give our children a fantastic opportunity to develop their batting skills. An opportunity that is not be possible with coach throw downs or from deliveries by the juniors themselves.

I do hope you will get involved. If you have any questions, you can contact me using the link below.
