All Stars is Bigger and Even Better

21 Mar 2018 | Cricket
Since the end of February, have been heavily promoting to parents the highly successful All Stars Cricket package which provides children aged five to eight with a great first experience in cricket.

Clubs are being offered a never before seen level of support with school visits to make this a reality in 2018. The programme is being delivered across all parts of Wales (and England!) currently at 112 clubs (and counting) running fully accredited All Stars Cricket centres.  

It is a fun and active way to develop children’s skills, and through our eight-week programme children will learn lots – as well as make new friends – in a safe and inclusive environment.

All Stars Cricket will provide kids with all of the fundamental skills they need to play. Through lively, fun games, they will learn about cricket and be better prepared to take part in all sports. Over the eight-week programme, the trained activators will teach children to:

- Catch and throw a ball
- Hit a moving ball
- Bowl with a straight arm
- Play a basic game of cricket
- Work and communicate as a team
- Have lots of fun with new friends

All girls and boys between the ages of 5-8 are welcome. You must register online which costs £40 but you will enjoy 8 weeks of cricket and receive a pack of cricket goodies (which you can take home) including:

- Cricket bat
- Cricket ball
- Backpack
- Personalised t-shirt
- Cap
- Activity book with stickers as part of the kit list
- Stumps for returning year 2 children

Mark Frost Development Manager for Cricket Wales said: “We know this is a great way for parents to spend time with their children and create memories that will last a lifetime.”

How do I register? Registration is simple and easy – just use the session finder to find multiple centres in your local area. From there you can follow the registration links and pay online. https://ecb.clubspark.uk/allstars/searchresults
