U10 – U12 Autumn Development Sessions

As in previous years, we have 8 week development sessions for male players in the U10-U12 age bracket. Players can sign up to one session time, and should attend this session only. We will also be running a one off trial in December, so while players from these sessions will be invited to Spring Sessions, players that do not sign up for the 8 week programme can still have an opportunity to get into the Spring Training squads via the December trials. The standard is aimed at players excelling in club or school cricket. Players should sign up for their age group as follows:

U10 – year 5 from 2023

U11 – year 6 from Sept 2023

U12 – year 7 from Sept 2023

(we will accept year 4 players in our year 4 groups but players from year 5 will be prioritised if oversubscribed)

U13 – U18 Observation Sessions

These are open for male players to sign up to, however I would encourage players and parents to consider whether the player is excelling in their club or school cricket and how they compare skill wise and performance to players they know of that have played representative cricket. Spending 2 hours struggling in a room of stronger players isn’t beneficial to their development.

There will be boys and girls Hub Trials in January for State School players in the U14 and U16 age ranges, along with an U18 City Cup Squad trial also in January.
