2023 Preparation

  • Please complete the registration + medical formalities (Online registration form here or attached below) as soon as possible for those who have not already done so in order that we complete the selection for U16s and also renew licences, etc..
  • Regular Sat morning Outdoor Training (on the  SAC's Meudon Cricket Ground) to start in May.
    • May & June + Sept & Oct – Sat mornings from 10 am to 12:30 pm
      Note: to avoid conflict with the Coronation Grande Fête the opening Junior Cricket session will be on Sunday 7 May
    • Boys & Girls, for all levels from zero to the best.
    • Our philosophy is to have joyful Saturday mornings with sessions, basics/advanced as needed!
    • Note that on Sat 13 May we combine U10 and U16 together starting at 10 am.
    • We will run till 15 July (inclusive) and restart again on 9 September
    • In case U16s are interested (based on selection), they can also join a game with Seniors in the month of August. Are you up for it?
  • For regular practice; purchase your own kit. (shirts, helmet, etc …)  Please order what you need by contacting the site https://seriouscricket.co.uk/teamwear/stores/standard-athletic-cc/.
    (See also this article about getting kit without import duties.)
  • Kindly circulate this flyer at your workplace/social-gatherings for Jr Cricketers, as you know we are always looking for new juniors.
  • If enough kids are motivated, a Swiss / (or other country) tour can also be planned. Let us know if you are interested.
  • If parents/guardians of the U16/U10 also want to play Senior Cricket, please contact Nisseem Burkule
