COLTS CRICKET
We are very proud of our colts' section, which caters for girls and boys from the age of 5 to 17. We have around 360 colts and a very long waiting list to join.
Our main colts' coaching evenings are; Wednesday night for the age group squads, ranging from U10 to U15 with the older colts (U17) training with the Adult teams, and Friday night which is our development night, with 200 or more colts taking part. One of our great achievements within the colts' section is the fact that all of our Wednesday and Friday night groups are lead by club members who are either ECB level One, Two or Three qualified coaches. They provide expert coaching to the boys, backed up by numerous coaching assistants. All coaches, and assistants are CRB checked, and our Child Welfare Officer is available.
Matches for the U10s are played on Sunday mornings with the rest of the teams playing on various weekday evenings.
Over the years we have continually had Eastcote representation in various Borough, Regional and County Colts' squads. We are extremely proud that many of our colts progress, some as young as 13, to our adult teams at the weekend.
Parents are encouraged to be a part of the club, by taking on family membership, which provides full social membership to them and their family for the year at a small additional cost, although they automatically become associate Members when their daughter or son joins the colts' section.
Our club is a family club, and that is evident on a Friday night after the colts coaching session, with our bbq, and colts’ corner, it is a great way to end your working week, and start the weekend.
