Our sessions this year run on Fridays from 10 May until Fri 28 Jun 2024, 17:30 - 18:15 and are led by award winning coach Andy Grayson, who last year was recognised by Wiltshire Cricket for his years of service to the club running our All Stars programme so superbly.

Under 9s: For those transitioning out of All Stars, or new to the sport, we run an Under 9s age group that trains each Friday (from 19th April, weather dependent) until mid-September – 17:30 – 18:45. This age group still trains with soft balls and we progress skills in a fun and enjoyable environment. This age group also plays a number of festivals through the year with an emphasis on participation and enjoyment. In 2024 this SCC setup was also recognised by Wiltshire Cricket and received a special recognition award. Please note we are not running the national Dynamo’s program in 2024, in favour of integrating players of all standards within our existing age group offerings.
