Junior Teams
Five junior teams from under-7 to under-14, more than 150 registered colts and over 20 qualified coaches. A proper pathway from a first session to senior cricket.
A massive part of the club
The junior section at Capel Cricket Club is something we're really proud of. We've built a strong pathway for young players to come in, learn the game properly, and enjoy their cricket in a supportive environment.
We currently run five junior teams — Under 7s, Under 9s, Under 11s, Under 13s and Under 14s — giving young players the chance to develop at every stage, and All Stars on Friday evenings. From first introductions to cricket through to competitive junior matches, the focus is always on fun, improvement and confidence.
One of the biggest positives is seeing juniors progress into senior cricket. Nearly all of the players in our Saturday 1st, 2nd and 3rd XIs grew up playing for Capel's juniors and colts and stayed on to become senior players — including those now winning leagues and competing strongly across multiple competitions. That pathway from junior cricket into successful senior teams is something the club takes real pride in.
We're always encouraging new youngsters to come along and get involved. Whether they're completely new to cricket or have played before, everyone is welcome. If you're interested, get in touch with the coach for the right age group and come down to a session — the more the merrier.

Our senior sides are built on our juniors
Around 95% of the players in our Saturday 1st, 2nd and 3rd XIs grew up playing junior and colts cricket at Capel — and stayed to become the senior players who now make up most of our sides.

For parents
Questions from parents
My child has never played. Can they still come along?
Absolutely. Most of our colts started with no experience at all. Just get in touch with the coach for their age group and come down to a session.
Which age group is right?
We run Under 7s, 9s, 11s, 13s and 14s. If you're not sure which group fits, ask any of the coaches above and they'll point you to the right one.
When and where is training?
Junior training is on Friday evenings at the Recreation Ground, Mortimer Road, during the season, alongside All Stars. The coach for their age group will let you know the details.
Can parents stay and watch?
Yes. The facilities are open during all training sessions, and the bar is open for everyone to use too.
What should they bring?
Comfortable sportswear and trainers, a water bottle, and sun cream and a hat on hot days. Ask the coach about any kit they'll need for their age group.
How much does it cost?
Junior membership is £55 for the season, with up to 40% off for each additional junior in the same family. All Stars membership for the youngest is £50 including kit. See the Membership page.
Who looks after safeguarding?
All coaches are ECB qualified and DBS checked, and the Club Safeguarding Officer is Jules Capsey, supported by Ben Brearley, Simon Markham, Richard Clark and Hilary Venn. For any queries or concerns, please contact us. To report a safeguarding incident, use the reporting form — anonymously if you prefer.
Junior cricket
Capel 6-a-Side Tournament
Capel once again played host to the annual Capel 6-a-Side Tournament on Sunday 14 June. This year's event was contested at Under-9 level and drew a strong twelve-team entry from clubs across the area.
The day ran as two groups of six, with the top two from each group going through to the semi-finals and the group winners meeting in the final. Matches were six overs of five balls a side — every player bowling an over, batting in pairs two overs at a time, no toss, with the first-named side batting first. Scores started at 100, wickets cost four runs and wides or no-balls added two; knockout ties were settled by a bowl-off.
It proved a tough day on home turf for our Under 9s, who couldn't quite find their form in the group stage. Credit to Pyrford CC, who took the tournament with victory in the final.
Thanks as ever to everyone who helped run the day — the umpires, scorers and tea team — and to all the visiting clubs for making it such a well-contested festival of junior cricket.
