Over 50 young cricket enthusiasts participated in our All-Stars program, where they had the opportunity to experience the joy and excitement of playing cricket. Many took to the field for the first time, and their enthusiasm was contagious.

Our Under 9 team deserves special recognition for their outstanding performance. Despite competing against older opponents, they demonstrated incredible skills and determination, finishing an impressive 6th in the county Super 8s. Their resilience and teamwork were truly commendable.

This year, we introduced three under-11 League Hardball teams, giving our players more chances to experience the thrill of competitive cricket. Seeing them embrace the challenges, learn from each match, and grow as cricketers was fantastic.

Our Under 12 team showcased their immense talent by reaching the finals day of the ECB knockout, scheduled for April 2024. This is a testament to their hard work, perseverance, and commitment to the sport. We do not doubt that they will continue to excel in the future.

We fielded two under-13 league teams, nurturing the skills and passion of our young cricketers. It is inspiring to witness their growth and development, not only as players but also as individuals.

The U15 team deserves special recognition for their outstanding achievement of winning the Invicta U15 Championship. Their dedication, teamwork, and exceptional performance throughout the season were remarkable. We are incredibly proud of their success.

In addition to their age group competitions, several juniors had the opportunity to play adult league cricket. It is a testament to their talent and hard work that they held their own and delivered notable match-winning performances. Their passion for the game and ability to rise to the challenge were awe-inspiring.

Our Ladies Corals team welcomed several junior members who demonstrated exceptional skills and dedication. Together, they finished in a commendable 3rd place in the recent Kent softball festival. Their achievements highlight the inclusive and supportive environment we strive to create at Cowdrey CC.

Cowdrey CC takes great pride in providing cricket opportunities to children of all abilities and backgrounds. It brings us immense joy to witness the growth and development of every child across our squads. As dedicated volunteers, we find it incredibly rewarding to offer them a pathway to thrive, forge lifelong friendships, and embrace the fantastic game of cricket.

Everyone connected with the club celebrates the remarkable achievements of our junior players and the values of inclusivity, teamwork, and camaraderie that define Cowdrey CC. Together, we’ll continue to nurture their love for the game and support them in their cricketing journey!
