THE CLUB
Crouch End Cricket Club re-established its Junior section in 2012 and since then it has grown quickly in both size and popularity. Here's what we offer:

• An inclusive ethos
• Training by highly experienced coaches
• Indoor training sessions over the Winter.
• Participation in the Middlesex Junior Association East Area League (Under 10’s, Under 11’s, Under 12’s, Under 13’s, Under 17s and Under 19’s), and a friendly league for Under 8 and 9’s
• Performance Pathway Scheme – A talent identification programme that helps those with the highest potential to progress into our senior teams followed by elite county teams. Crouch End Cricket Club is committed to identifying and developing homegrown cricketers to play in our Senior teams and hopefully one day for Middlesex and then England.
• Youth Membership for older children to help them bridge the gap between being a Junior and Senior member and an opportunity to participate in the Middlesex Development League (MDL)
• Very popular Cricket Camps during school holidays with discounts for club members
• Established Women and Girls section
• A great atmosphere for the parents, with an open bar on training nights and freshly-cooked international food and snacks on Friday nights
• Free parking
• A spectacular view of Alexandra Palace from the Club Pavilion and Terrace

HOLIDAY CAMPS
When are the Holiday Camps?

We run Cricket Camps during Easter, May Half Term and our Summer holidays. They are a great way to learn new skills and get lots of extra practice in a friendly and relaxed environment. Each day the children will take part in batting, bowling and fielding sessions, delivered using fun, engaging and educational methods. Afternoons are tactical and game-play based sessions including middle practices, net scenarios, TGFUs (Teaching Games for Understanding) and small sided matches. We welcome children from School Year 1 with all levels of abilities and those with no previous experience. Open to members and non-members. We also offer half day nets for older juniors, using the bowling machine,
