Our Elite Academy is designed to provide an environment where players can be challenged appropriately alongside players of a similar ability. The weekly sessions allow players to build on the basics of cricket and work on those extra skills that there just isn’t always time for at club training.
The Academy is for those aged 6+ all the way through to the later teenage years. Players will be split into groups based on ability and experience,
Micros, Micros Plus, Foals, Colts and Elites.
*Micros is for those aged 6+ and is predominantly soft ball, with some introduction to hard ball where appropriate
*Micros Plus is for those aged 9+ ready to start introducing hard ball. The aim is to gain confidence with hard ball and keep working on general cricket skills with soft ball content too
*Foals is the next step for those with a seasons hard ball experience
*Colts will be for those who have been playing hard ball games for 2 years+
*Elites will be for those playing adult cricket
Players will be moved around groups as appropriate to create the correct level of challenge.
Sessions will be led by our experienced county age group coaches Alex Bingham or Dan Green as well as Jack Dudley and Ben Hopkins.. We also welcome Hannah Hardwick who will be coaching our Micros (Girls) sessions!
The sessions will be engaging, thought provoking and designed to support players through their particular stage of development.
