Rockhampton Youth Cricket

As a Gloucestershire Cricket accredited focus club Rockhampton CC are justifiably proud of our thriving junior teams.
 
The clubs junior section currently has four sides playing in either the Stroud or Bristol leagues.

U11's, U13's, U15's and under 17's, playing under the guidance of Head Coach Neil Higginson.

The youth section are lucky to be able to rely on an enthusiastic team of dedicated coaches and willing volunteers who continually strive to improve our junior section.

Many of our junior players have gone on to represent the District and County in previous years and this year is no different.

Commencing in February each year our junior program commences with weekly indoor net sessions at the Castle School Sports Hall, unfortunately, being victims of our own popularity, we are currently limited on the numbers we are able to accomodate for nets due to the sheer volume of children who are currently playing for RCC or who are interested in joining.

However as spring aproaches the nights grow lighter we then train at our two grounds, which is where the numbers increase heavily to accomodate for the younger players starting at just 7 years of age.

We are lucky to have great facilities to make the parents experience at the club more comfortable, with two different bars, barbecue evenings, picturesque countryside surroundings and of course those resident chickens that often pass by on the hunt for crisps and nuts!
