Nominations for the Hertfordshire Girls Cricket Performance Pathway are now open and official club and school personnel are invited to nominate players via the link at the bottom of this page. Please note that a player's parents, family or friends cannot make nominations.
At U11 - U15 (School Years 5 - 10) Hertfordshire are running Girls CAG and Development Programmes. The Development squad is the sole feeder to the CAG squads. Girls develop physically and mentally at very different rates. Therefore, Hertfordshire young cricketers will be moved between the Development and CAG squads dependant on what suits each individual at that time. Our remit is the development of each child and helping them become the best adult cricketer they can be. All training and matches will be with a hard ball.
Trials will take place at the end of the August / early September – dates, times and location of the trials will be confirmed in due course.
*Winter training will commence at the end of September and run through to end of March. U11 and U13 CAG squads will train on a Monday or Wednesday evenings at Chancellor’s School, Nr Hatfield and the U15 CAG squad will train on a Friday evening at the Hertfordshire Sports Village, Hatfield. Development squads (U13 & U15) will train on a Sunday morning at Chancellor’s School.
If you have any talented cricketers, not currently part of our programmes, who you would like to nominate for either the U11 (must have hard ball experience), U13 or U15 squads then please complete the nomination form via the link below.
Players already on our Performance Pathway (both CAG and DEV) do not need to be re-nominated, they will be invited directly by Hertfordshire Cricket to attend the trials.
Players who took part in the Hertfordshire Jets Winter programme and are now old enough to be considered for the U11 Squad (Years 5 or 6), will still need to be nominated by their Club or School.
