Colts Cricket
Sutton Cricket Club has a vibrant colts section, with about 190 boys and girls as junior members and we offer high-quality cricket coaching.
We have teams from U8’s to U19’s, with players of all levels included in the coaching structure. Many excellent cricketers have moved from the Club as a colt to senior cricket and many of the coaches were also colts at the Club.
A recent success story was our U15 team in 2015, who made it to National Finals Day, after winning the County and Regional cups along the way. We ended up 3rd in the nation, an amazing achievement, considering more than 1600 clubs participate in the competitions.
We offer two programmes for young cricketers who want to learn and enjoy the game: All Stars (for ages 5-8) and Dynamos (for ages 8-11). These are 8-week courses run by the ECB and designed for beginners and are run during May and June on a Friday evening, starting in early May, 2025, dates tbc.
For those with some cricket experience we offer membership of the club with benefits of club membership are outlined below.
In 2022 we introduced a trials day to help parents choose the right programme for their child. The trials day takes place at our Cheam Road ground with the next one set for Saturday, March 29th 2025, where our coaches will assess children’s skills. The trials day is also a great opportunity to meet other players and parents and get familiar with our club.
To attend the trials please send the information required below via email here.

Winter Indoor Courses
We offer a 10-week indoor training programme for young cricketers aged 5 to 15 (from year 1 to year 10) during the winter season. The sessions are held on Saturday afternoons at Glyn School in Epsom and are led by Sutton CC’s qualified coaches. Current members have priority booking, but we welcome new participants if there are spaces available. The programme is divided into two parts: one before Christmas and one after Christmas.
