Parklands Cricket are now pleased to offer junior indoor cricket in the winter months for Years 3 to 6 (age 7 to 10) in the Parklands Recreation Centre, 75 Queenspark Drive.
While the hall and our facilities aren't the same as in a dedicated indoor sports centre, the kids still have heaps of fun and can continue developing their cricket and teamwork skills at the exceptional value of just $20 for 5 games compared with around $10 per game at dedicated centres.
Where?
Parklands Recreation Centre, 75 Queenspark Drive - access from the car park (not through the clubrooms).
When?
Term 3 2024 - Every Tuesday from 27 July to 30 August.
Game times will differ each week depending on the draw and number of registrations, starting anytime from 3:30PM to 5:30PM and lasting one hour.
Who?
School Years 3 to 6 - approx age 7 to 10, but contact us if you have a very confident 6 year old.
Teams will be of mixed age and we will try to manage "match ups" so older children bowl to older children or are asked to slow bowling if bowling to younger/less confident children.
You can specify friends you would like your child to play with when registering and we will do our best to place them in the same team.
New players and players from all clubs are most welcome.
What to Wear/Bring?
A selection of plastic and wooden bats are supplied, but you are welcome to bring your own. There is no clothing requirement.
Format
Pairs cricket in teams of 6 - everyone bats, bowls and fields equally. 4 overs per pair batting (guaranteed 12 balls per batter), 2 overs per bowler.
