Introduction

We are a fun, dynamic and inclusive club running a national award winning programme for children from U8 to U17. 

All sessions are run by ECB accredited, DBS checked, and First Aid qualified coaches, and are overseen by our Head Coach. We cater for cricketers of all ages and abilities if they want to play

We run a year-round programme of activities for children including training, matches, tournaments and holiday camps. We enter teams into local MJCA leagues, and promote transition into our Senior Teams, giving players the skills and confidence to play at this level. We feed into East London Boroughs and the Middlesex County Age Group pathways. 

We are family-friendly, and encourage everyone to stay and enjoy the atmosphere at the club. We host fundraising BBQs throughout the summer, have a great Thai Kitchen on site, and encourage everyone to come and relax together at weekends while supporting our Senior Teams. Our bar / cafe is open throughout the week.

2025 SEASON highlights

2025 Junior  highlights were the Boys Under 12s who finished easily top of their league ahead of Winchmore Hill, Boys Under 13s who came second ahead of local club Crouch End, Boys Under 15s who finished second above neighbours North Middlesex and North London. But by far the best performing teams in the whole club was definitely the Girls Under 11s who won their league, Girls Under 13s and 15s, both of whom won their leagues and made the regional finals. Fantastic achievements !
