Pathway

Over the last 5 seasons Kumeu Cricket Club has successfully fielded a Women’s Premier Reserve team.  We have now reached the stage where we are able to offer options for our younger girls to play cricket in an age appropriate Auckland Cricket competition and a pathway to potentially play Women’s Premier Cricket for the club.

Yeah! Girls (10 – 17 years old)

Girls Smash (Year 3 – Year 6)

Girls Smash is a fun and social programme for girls school years 3 – 6. It has been purposefully designed to offer girls of all skill levels an opportunity to experience our game in a fun, inclusive format. Games usually take between 40-50mins, and all players receive an equal opportunity. Girls Smash is all about having fun and giving it a go, with no experience necessary and all equipment provided!

Children play at the home of Kumeu Cricket – Huapai Domain, in school teams of six. Games are played with a soft ball, plastic bats, wickets, and stumps – a great way to introduce your children to the game. All girls who register online receive a free Pink T-Shirt!

If your school does not have enough students to enter a 6aside team, please get in contact as we can accommodate individual registrations in our programme.
