The number of girls at the club has been growing every year, which is fantastic to see. This season we have 2 girls softball teams for under 9 and under 11s and both softball and hardball for under 13’s. Our older girls currently play alongside the boys in our mixed gender teams.
Cheshire cricket and the ECB are actively supporting diversity in the game and the girls leagues are getting stronger and more competitive every year. As the girls get older we plan to have more specific girls teams in the older age groups, including more hard ball offerings.
We’re hoping this will prove infectious with the mums and local ladies, we ran an really successful woman’s softball tournament last year, with a view to starting our first ladies team soon.
