We run a Colts section for both boys and girls from age 5 upwards with competitive matches from U10 to U18.

New members are always very welcome, whether as new Colts, or returning ones - we will have a team that will suit your abilities.
Colts Coaching - Our colts setup provides coaching for those aged between five and fifteen and the opportunity to play in the Thames Valley Junior Cricket League. All coaching is provided by qualified coaches and young leaders, who are trained and have been screened for their suitability for working with young people. We are also England & Wales Cricket Board (ECB) Clubmark accredited.
We're delighted to report that there's a lot going on for the Juniors:
Winter nets
Easter Holiday camp
Summer Holiday camps
Amersham CC All Stars ( 8 sessions)
Amersham CC Dynamos ( 8 sessions)
Tournaments throughout the summer
Full range of coaching sessions available every week
1-2-1 coaching available
Competitive League & Cup fixtures
Friendly fixtures
Thursday evening nets for U16's - U19's
Matches - Team managers will be coordinating matches together with help from other parents with umpiring and scoring. Fixtures if at home are scheduled to take place at Shardeloes or Little Kingshill home ground either on Weekday evenings starting at 6pm or Sunday mornings for a 10am start. Players selected in matches are expected to arrive in time for matches at least half an hour before the start of play. The more help, the more matches players will have.
We also actively encourage our junior players to move up to the senior side when they are ready. Lots of existing first team players were involved with the cricket club as youngsters.
