Stokenchurch Colts 2010

Stokenchurch Cricket Club has a thriving colts section, providing qualified coaching from ages 7 to 17

Coaching is provided by eight ECB qualified and CRB checked coaches and members of the ECB Coaches Association

We pride ourselves on being a child friendly club and are currently in the process of gaining the Clubmark certification.

It may sometime seem like we ask for lots of information and paperwork but this is all part of the Clubmark process and conforming with the ECB child guidelines contained in the document "SafeHands".

Coaching sessions for all age groups are held on a Thursday evening from 6pm until 8pm from the start of May until the end of August the bar is always open during coaching and you are welcome to stay and have a drink or leave and collect your children when we have finished. We have a club Welfare Officer and qualified First Aiders are always present at coaching sessions

For the younger players the emphasis is on fun and we play with a soft ball, boys and girls are equally welcome. The older players progress to hard ball cricket and soon find themselves in matches

All equipment is provided and we just ask that players come suitably attired

We also run indoor coaching sessions during the winter, this year they will be held on a Saturday morning and more details will follow shortly

In 2007, with generous help from the Parish Council we purchased a bowling machine and this is used together with our all weather and mobile pitch net to provide some dedicated coaching for the older age groups

This summer, as in previous years we intend to enter 4 teams in the county age group competitions; U11, U13, U15 and U17 - Two years ago the U17's were County Champions

We try to keep all parents informed and all the newsletters, normally handed out at the Thursday coaching sessions will be available to download from here, as well as registration forms

In September we hold a Presentation Evening and Dinner for the colts and regularly have 80-90 attendees. More details are here
