Free Cricket Sessions for Girls

Penicuik Cricket Club are excited to be running a girls only Dynamos programme this year on Saturday mornings, 11am to 12pm starting on the 18th of May.

 

Dynamos is an 8 week programme designed specifically for children aged 8-11.  Even better news is that Cricket Scotland are providing full funding so we can offer participants these sessions for FREE! Each participant will also receive a free branded t-shirt, bat and ball from Cricket Scotland, normally the course would cost £40.

 

No prior experience of cricket is required, all welcome. We have a limited number of spaces and a special link and discount code for bookings, so if interested please email juniorcricketpenicuik@outlook.com for access to the link. We  are also fortunate to have Coach Phoebe Beal join our team who will be leading these sessions. As a club we are working hard to invest in our girls, providing more opportunities for them to play and develop their skills. Cricket is not just for boys!
