Buxton Cricket Club welcomes all new juniors players – boys and girls – interested in learning to play cricket. No previous playing experience is needed – just bring yourself and a positive attitude! The club will supply any equipment needed. We run four junior age groups: Under 9, Under 11, Under 13 and Under 16.

Juniors 2010 Presentation Evening

 

"Thank you to everyone who made the Juniors Presentation Evening such a good night yesterday. We had excellent numbers (standing room only) and good food (brought by parents). Thank you to Will for doing the bar and to Tracey and Debbie for looking after all the food. It was a really excellent and positive atmosphere, with many appreciative comments from parents about the season and the care the club and the coaches have taken."

Minimum Age Policy

 

To maintain our commitment to high coaching standards and duty of care we regret that Buxton CC can only accept new juniors who are in School Year 3 (age 7-8) or older. We will review on an on-going basis depending on availability of additional club coaches.

 

 

Coaching

 

All coaches are CRB checked and ECB qualified. Main season coaching is on Tuesday evenings at 6:30pm, except for Under 16s who train on Thursdays alongside the Club’s senior sides at 6pm.

 

In 2010 we also benefited from assistance of one of the Derbyshire Cricket Board specialist community coaches. We hope to continue this again in 2011.

 

 

Competitions

 

Buxton Cricket Club fields competitive teams in the Derbyshire & Cheshire Junior Leagues for Under 11, Under 13 and Under 16. The Under 9s also play some friendly matches with other local clubs.
