SEASON START – The Friday evening cricket sessions will start on the 1st May 2026 and run through to the end of July. We often arrange additional sessions throughout August too.
REGISTRATIONS – For those who have not registered before please click here to go to the Wisborough Green Sports MyClubhouse website to register. Registration costs £60 for the year which runs from 1 April – 31 March next year. Once you have registered you and your family are able to benefit from member rates at the bar.
Existing members should have received an email from Myclubhouse to invite you to subscribe for the new season. If you did not receive the renewal email please email us at wisboroughgreenccjuniors@gmail.com
COMMUNICATION – A Whatsapp group will be created to share fixtures, team selection, and notify of any changes to times or if we have to call off a session due to rain.
EQUIPMENT – The Club has some pads, helmets, gloves and a few bats which will be available at training and also at matches. We suggest buying a box and ‘cricket briefs’ as this is a requirement before batting against a hard ball, even in the nets.
PARENTAL HELP – There is one qualified volunteer coach in this age group and we welcome any parent helpers on Friday evenings. For the matches we also need a scorer and umpire, any parental experience with this would be most gratefully received. If your child signs up to this age group this also includes family membership to Wisborough Green Sports Association which enables you to purchase drinks at the bar at a discounted price.
ABOVE ALL – We aim to provide fun sessions that develop a child’s core cricketing skills and give them a love of cricket, for the volunteer coaches that run these sessions this is where it all started for us.
MATCHES – During the season there are league matches and we field a competitive side. With safety in mind, we will only put a child forward for one of these matches if we feel confident of their ability in a hard ball game. Several friendlies and interclub games will also be organised throughout the season with the aim of giving everyone who is keen to play some match practice.
The under 11’s will be competing in the Newberry Sussex Junior North West Group in the 2026 season. Games are played on Tuesday evenings at 6pm and the match format will be 8 a side Pairs cricket 16 over game using a hard ball on a 17 yard pitch and junior sized stumps (Games of 6 a side or 10 a side may also be played to fulfil a fixture)
