Are you a school, tour group or community group?
Want to give cricket a try at the home of Kent Cricket?
We are offering you a chance to learn more about the sport and have fun as well as developing skills such as teamwork and resilience. The sessions will be run by the Kent Cricket Community Team and no previous experience of cricket is necessary.
Take the opportunity to visit and learn the basics of Cricket, in the very same facilities used by Kent’s professional and international Cricket Stars. Our excellent team of community coaches will share their knowledge to teach you how to BAT, BOWL and FIELD and then test these new skills out with your peers in some game play.
