Juniors

Poynton Juniors is an established and thriving junior cricket club in Poynton which is part of the North East Cheshire cricket club.  We have approximately 200 players between the ages of 6 and 16 enjoying all levels of cricket and improving their skills through our winter nets programme, summer training on Friday evenings and 15 competitive league teams across the age groups.  

We have over 20 ECB qualified coaches and many other volunteers who facilitate the development of young cricketers’ physical, technical and tactical skills in a fun and safe, yet competitive, environment.  

As an inclusive Club, whether our juniors are just playing with friends for fun, want to focus on improving their physical and social skills or are aspiring to progress through the County cricket pathway, we accommodate all abilities for girls and boys.
