Colts cricket at The Lee Cricket Club

 

From very humble beginnings The Lee cricket club has developed a thriving and very successful Colts section. It all began in the summer of 2000 when Joff Webb began Kwik cricket on friday evenings with just under 40 children attending the first sessions. Word spread that not only were the children enjoying cricket but also there was a bar open and the Friday evenings became both a sporting occasion and also a very popular social occasion for the parents.

The numbers of children attending on fridays grew steadily and by the summer of 2007 there were 148 members of our Colts section ranging in age from 5 to 13. We encourage children to enjoy their cricket and to play the game in the right spirit, being competitive as well as fair and sporting.

Coaches give up their time voluntarily, have taken ECB coaching courses and are CRB checked as required by the ECB. As a club we have adopted the ECB "Safe Hands" policy for safeguarding children www.ecb.co.uk/safehands. It helps the coaches if the children arrive promptly are are wearing whites if possible. At the beginning of the season the Colts can purchase kit bearing the club logo.

 

As some of the children grew older we began to introduce them to hardball cricket with separate coaching on saturday mornings to allow them to develop their skills without endangering the younger children. In 2005 we took a major step by entering an U11 team in the Bucks League.

 

In the summer of 2009 we have four league teams as we continue our aim of developing children from softball cricket to hardball cricket and all the way to our adult teams. In 2007 our U11's won the Bucks County Knock-Out Cup which was a wonderful achievement for our club and one which will live long in the memory of everyone associated with the Lee CC. It is also pleasing to note that some of our children will be representing the club in County teams this summer.
