What is All Stars Cricket?

All Stars Cricket provides a fantastic first experience for all children aged 5-8 years old where they’re guaranteed 8 weeks of jam-packed fun, activity and skills development. The programme is designed to introduce children to the sport, teaching them new skills, helping them make new friends and have a great time doing so.

Every child that registers will receive a personalised t-shirt with your child’s name

All Stars - Made for kids

All Stars Cricket gives all children from the ages of five to eight an opportunity to become a star. The curriculum of fun cricket activities and games provides your children with the basic movement skills to begin a lifelong love of our sport and general physical activity.

Why is All Stars Cricket good for my child?

All Stars Cricket will provide your child with all of the fundamental skills they need to play. Through lively, fun games, they will learn about cricket and be better prepared to take part in all sports. Over the eight-week programme, the trained activators will teach your child to:

Catch and throw a ball
Hit a moving ball
Bowl with a straight arm
Play a basic game of cricket
Work and communicate as a team
Have lots of fun with new friends

Can parents and guardians be involved?

All Stars Cricket is also fantastic for parents. For an hour a week all parents and guardians are invited to get involved and play cricket with their children. We know this is a great way to spend time with your child and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Parent activators (helpers) will support the fully accredited lead activator in delivering the session, supporting and encouraging children as they learn new skills. You do not need to be a cricket expert to be involved!

An important part of All Stars Cricket is that you can be involved too. It is a brilliant way for you to spend time with your child outdoors this summer.

If you say yes, your centre will be in touch with further information and you’ll be given lots of support along the way.

Yes, the All Stars Cricket programme is an initiative designed by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).

When I go to pay, it says my payment has failed - how can I resolve this?

New banking legislation is being brought in on the 14th March 2022, however, some banks have changed technology early. Whilst we are changing our systems to meet these requirements some payments may fail. If this occurs please either pay with a card from an alternative bank or wait until 24th Feb when ECB systems will be updated.
