Junior Cricket is a form of cricket designed for young players, typically aged between 5 and 18 years. It aims to introduce children to the sport, teaching them the basic skills of batting, bowling, and fielding in a fun and supportive environment. Junior cricket often features modified rules and shorter formats to accommodate the skill levels and attention spans of younger players. Many local clubs and schools offer Junior Cricket programs, which may include training sessions, friendly matches, and competitions. These programs help develop teamwork, sportsmanship, and a love for the game, while also providing a pathway for talented players to progress to higher levels of cricket.
