GIRLS' CRICKET AT GOLDEN HILL
The Girls' Youth Cricket section at Golden Hill Cricket Club was formed in 2016 by an enthusiastic group of parents and since then we have seen a number of girls develop as individuals, gaining both confidence and leadership skills through their cricket.
The Golden Hill Girls' set-up helps maintain friendships from junior school age and right through to senior school.
Cricket encourages girls to be active and develop an enjoyment of sports, while also providing opportunities to form strong bonds and develop a fantastic team spirit.
At Golden Hill Cricket Club, we introduce girls to the game of cricket from Year 1, through softball cricket (kwik cricket games and exercises).
Everyone has the opportunity to be involved and no kit is required.
At Golden Hill Cricket Club, the focus is on fun and enjoyment.
Combined, our girls' and women's sides now account for close to the region of 25% of our membership (or, around 100 playing members).
Registration
The registration covers the whole year from winter training which typically starts in late January through to July/August – some years games in September.
