🌟What a year it’s been for our Girls’ Section!🌟
We finished the 2025 season with just 3 Under 12 girls, and since then we’ve gone from strength to strength…
🏏This year, over 20 girls aged 8–12 have represented the club in softball festivals and matches, and even in a composite ball match! Some of our girls have also taken the exciting step into our Women’s Softball, and mixed hardball Under 11 teams.
It’s been fantastic to see friendships and confidence develop throughout the season. We’re incredibly proud of the girls’ commitment, dedication, positive energy, and how much they encourage one another! 💚
🗓️We’re cramming in as much cricket as we can before the season ends in September, before heading indoors in the autumn and winter.
🎯Our aim is to build on this season’s success and establish two girls’ age groups, playing a variety of softball and hardball formats.
If your daughter is aged between 8 and 14 and would like to get involved, we’d love to hear from you:
