Clevedon Cricket Club are delighted to announce the return of one of the biggest junior sections across the country this year, with a wide range of training for boys and girls taking place at Dial Hill in the coming months. As always, we are aiming to provide as many opportunities as we can to give existing players, and those new to cricket, the chance to get involved.  

The club is also happy to welcome former England U19 and Gloucestershire player Jared Warner as the new head youth coach for the 2022 season. Jared is not only a professional cricketer with Gloucestershire but is also a qualified ECB coach and will lead our youth coaching this year. He will be supported by our other qualified coaches and players. As well as playing for Gloucestershire and Yorkshire, Jared has represented England at U19 level at a world cup.

Below you can find all details and dates for junior cricket available to both boys and girls of all abilities.
