Colts Success in Wisden!
Last year's great U11 performance against Newbury is recorded in the 2010 Wisden Cricketers' Almanack on page 1581:READING POST - June 23
Newbury Under-11s had a total of 50 in their match against Mortimer West End – but none of their batsmen scored a run. Nine were bowled for ducks, and the tenth was run out. Their runs came from six no-balls and 19 wides, which all counted double under age group rules. West End won by ten wickets.

Outdoor training starts at the ground in Church Road on Thursday, April 29th.

Coaches will insist that appropriate protective equipment will be used - see Helmet Guidance. The club has all equipment available for colts to use as necessary. In addition, we will apply the ECB Directives on Fast Bowling to manage the development of our cricketers in the nets. Where fielding practice takes place with a hard ball, we will enforce the ECB's Fielding Regulations.
