Summer Cricket Program
Following our vision and development strategy to become a Multisport Club, we are pleased to announce that Christchurch United has registered a cricket program. Christchurch United Cricket Club started cricket sessions from the 4th term.
Within our Summer cricket program, there are two options, after school sessions for U6-U8s, and more traditional Saturday cricket games for U8-U10s.
The Under 8 classes will focus on physical activity and developing a lifelong love of exercise. The after-school groups will master fundamental cricket skills and start to learn specific sports skills such as hitting moving balls, catching and throwing a cricket ball, and we will also introduce basic game rules with modified games to suit class size and ability.
Session Times:
Saturday Cricket Team Trainings on Wednesdays 4.30−5.30.
After School session for U6-U8 Fridays 3.30−4.30
Friday sessions start on the 16th October and will run through to March 2021.
Saturday games start from 9am at schools and parks around Christchurch, and start on Saturday 17th October, and run through to March 2021.
Cost of programme for the entire season (term 4&term 1):
Friday Skills Programme $120
Junior Saturday Programme $140
Join any week, the amount of payment will be adjusted
