All Stars Cricket & Dynamos

An ideal introduction into Cricket, the ECB All Stars programme is for 5-8 year olds is to give them their first experience of cricket within a fun environment, ran by qualified coaches and volunteers, across an eight week schedule.

In 2022 we are also running Dynamos, in partnership with the ECB. It’s a similar course but for 8-11 years olds. We’re expecting it to sell out, so book quickly!
