Your young cricketers benefit from the knowledge and experience of our talented coaches. They:

With a coaching ratio averaging one coach to every ten children, no one gets to sit around! All coaches are well-qualified, experienced, good educators and skilled cricketers.

Each Clinic is an active, full participation event. Your child will be rewarded with new skills, new friendships and a terrific fun time under the watchful eye of experienced, caring coaches.

In recognition of their participation, each child attending a full clinic receives a Manly-Warringah Cricket Coaching report and certificate. Further awards, like cricket bats and other equipment, are made at the conclusion of the clinic for sportsmanship, enthusiastic participation and improvement.
