AllStars
Our All Stars Cricket begins today at Coalpit Heath Cricket Club.
We are pleased to announce that we are fully booked with 40 children and their families joining us for the programme. The exciting 8 week programme will give your child many skills used in cricket whilst having a great time!
Directions to the cricket club can be found here.
Parents should have received your personalised kit by now. If the bag hasn’t arrived yet please don’t worry, we have plenty of kit for the session.
As you will be aware All Stars is all about fun cricket sessions for the children, and your involvement in this will make the experience better for them, and give you some ideas of ways you can practise at home during the week! For the best experience parents/carers are encouraged to take part in sessions, and practise skills with your very own kit bag at home. If parents aren’t taking part, they are expected to stay on site for health and safety reasons, so all the more reason to come and join in!
Each week you’ll earn an All Stars Cricket badge for a new cricket skill you’ve learned, so now’s the time to download the ace All Stars Cricket wall chart ready to stick them all on!
The England Cricket Board have recently emailed about a ‘Bring a Friend’ initiative which they are rolling out Nationally. However good this may sound, as a club we are at full capacity with the All Stars we already have in attendance, so please don’t spend the next day searching for a friend to bring J.
The coach is Pete Lamb, a level 3 coach and current Coalpit Heath player. His number is 07487 695777 and please give him a call or email Pete.Lamb@glosccc.co.uk if you have any problems or would like to ask a question before the session starts. You can also contact us at allstars@coalpitheathcc.org.uk
Alongside becoming an All Star at Coalpit Heath, the club are giving you free family membership for the coming 12 months. This entitles you to use the facilities of the club both socially and for private functions – please ask for details. The clubhouse, bar and barbeque are open for use every week through until the end of the summer for you to enjoy your Friday evenings.
We have a dedicated Coalpit Heath Youth Cricket Facebook group which you can join for the latest club news.
We look forward to welcoming you to our cricet club!
Club members, the local community and local businesses are asked to help the cricket club get ready for the season ahead.
We need many pairs of hands to help with cleaning, cutting grass, collecting rubbish etc. To say thank you there’s a free Natwest CricketForce tshirt for every volunteer and a bbq laid on at lunchtime.
We also have a long list of specialist jobs that need doing including landscaping, decorating and carpark marking and we would be really interested in hearing from local businesses who could help in return for free sponsorship at the club – message for more details!
This year the event weekend is Sat/Sun 30/31 March
