Modified Games for Young Players
For our younger teams (U10 and U11), we believe in making cricket safe, inclusive, and most importantly, fun. That’s why we use modified games designed to build confidence and skills in a supportive environment. These games feature:
- Smaller boundaries to keep the action close
- Fewer players per side, ensuring everyone gets involved
- Shorter match durations to keep energy high and attention focused
- Every child has the chance to bat, bowl, and field, learning the essentials while having a blast with their teammates.
- If a player gets out while batting, they can continue to bat until their turn is finished.
Equipment for our U10 and U11 teams are supplied in a team kit, however if you choose to have your own set (which most players do) we do suggest:
- Helmet
- Batting Pads
- Batting gloves
- Bat
- Abdominal Guard (box)
- Thigh Guard (optional)
- Arm Guard (optional)
- Drink Bottle
- Sunscreen
- Snacks
Hats, and playing shirts are supplied by the club.
Players need to source their own white pants.
Cricket shoes are optional at this age – normal runners are fine!

Progressing to Full Cricket
As players grow and develop through U12, U13, U14, U15, and U16, the game gradually moves towards the traditional format. Boundaries expand, match lengths increase, and rules align more closely with senior cricket—preparing our juniors for the next level. Our experienced coaches focus on developing technical ability, tactical understanding, teamwork, and sportsmanship, ensuring a smooth and exciting transition for every player.
