Sutton Cricket Club are proud to have a thriving colts section, with a junior membership of around 150 boys and girls and we pride ourselves on the quality of our cricket coaching. Please click here for the coaching schedule for the year.
We have teams ranging from U8’s right the way up to U19’s, with players of all standards accommodated within the coaching structure. Many fine cricketers have progressed through the Club as a colt into senior cricket and many of the coaches have themselves been colts at the Club.
A highlight of our recent success was our U15 team in 2015, who reached National Finals Day, having won the County and Regional cups on their way there. We eventually finished 3rd in the country, a remarkable achievement, considering over 1600 clubs enter the competitions.
If you would like to join the Club, please get in touch with Peter Edwards who will be more than happy to invite you down to the Club.
