FAR SOUTH COAST CRICKET ASSOCIATION
Junior Stages Explained
Junior Cricket Pathway – Stages Not Ages
Why Are We Moving to a Stages-Based Competition?
The Far South Coast Cricket Association is proposing a junior cricket structure based on player development and ability, rather than strictly on age.
Children develop at different rates. Some are ready for harder and more challenging cricket earlier, while others benefit from additional time developing skills and confidence at a level that suits them.
A stages-based approach allows every player to participate in the competition that best matches their current ability and enjoyment level.
Stage 1 – Introduction to Cricket - Indicative Age Group: U9, U10, U11 (U12 would require dispensation)
-
Softball cricket
-
Focus on fun, participation and learning
-
Friday night competition
-
Suitable for beginners and developing players
Stage 2 – Introduction to Hard-Ball Cricket - Indicative Age Group: U11, U12, U13, (U14 would require dispensation)
