2025 Season Update

15 Mar 2025

Dear members,

Winter training is well underway, and we have had a great uptake of places in the youth section. Members should be aware that full registration is required (form submitted & payment of subscription) to guarantee a place, and ensure fairness in the selection of teams. All 2024 youth players that haven't yet re-registered for the 2025 season must do so before this Friday. Please see further information below:

  1. Winter Nets: dates, location and age-group timings
  2. Annual Subscriptions
  3. Youth cricket
  4. Adult cricket
  5. Women’s softball cricket
  6. Volunteering at the club

 

1. WINTER NETS

Due to higher attendance than in previous years we have had to change the timings for the last 4 indoor sessions starting Friday 21st March. This we hope will provide the coaches more space to run sessions for the U9s and U11s that they desperately need.

Friday 21st March - Friday 11th April 2025

St. Andrews School, Buckhold, Pangbourne RG8 8QA
(What3Words: alarm.elephants.emeralds)
U9s                             6.30 – 7.15pm
U11s                           7.15 – 8.00pm
U13s                           8.00 – 9.00pm
U15s and Adults         9.00 - 10.00pm

 

2. ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTIONS

Subscriptions cover all match fees and net sessions

£100: 2025 Youth and Ladies

£150: 2025 Adult subscriptions

(£100 concessions, unemployed and students)  

Make relevant transfers with reference [your name] to:

3. YOUTH CRICKET

Members should be aware that full registration is required (form submitted & payment of subscription) to guarantee a place, and ensure fairness in the selection of teams. All 2024 youth players that haven't yet re-registered for the 2025 season must do so before this Friday. Please fill the ONLINE FORM here. After you submit the form please pay the subscription fee. Only when BOTH actions have been completed, is your child then registered for the 2025 season.

 

4. ADULT CRICKET

Adults DO NOT need to fill in an online form. New and existing adult members should pay their subscriptions as soon as possible.

 

5. WOMEN’S SOFTBALL CRICKET

New players of all abilities welcome for the coming season! Our Bradfield Kites Ladies just completed an amazing season. Our women’s team will train at Elstree School in Woolhampton Hill, Upper Woolhampton, Reading RG7 5TD. Training is on Sundays from 10:00 to 11:00. 

 

6. VOLUNTEERING AT THE CLUB

We are desperately short of volunteers. We currently require assistant parent managers for the U9 and U11 teams. Thanks for those that already reached out.

Bradfield Cricket Club is run entirely by volunteers. There is a small committee that work tirelessly all year round to ensure cricket is accessible to as many youth, men and women as possible, as well as fulfilling our legal and community obligations as a Club. Even if you can run the bar, or the BBQ for one evening in the summer; or volunteer to help the coaches at the practice sessions or fulfil the role of team manager for your child’s age group team, we’d love to hear from you. Full training is provided for all roles, and you will always have support to lean on. Prior cricket experience is not necessary to fulfil the role of assistant coach or team manager. Please consider it.

Finally, we have vacancies on the Club Committee for people willing to contribute to the club's expansion and further the cricket experience for the all members of the club. If you feel that you can offer something and are willing to attend a monthly meeting (max 8 per year) we would like to hear from you. (More information available from david@bradfieldcc.org )
