Are you a Club Volunteer who wants to develop furt

Are you a Club Volunteer who wants to develop further their Coaching skills and experience or are you an experienced player who has started to notice players are asking you for advice and they are benefitting in both confidence and in skill level from your advice and you'd like to do more.

Well on Sunday, 27th October our next ECB Core Coach Development course starts at 9.30am at Comberton Village College.

Every club in Cambridgeshire needs more coaches to help deliver a wide range of coaching to their young people learning the game. There is also an ECB statistic that says for every 1 new coach 10 new players are created.

So by qualifying as an ECB Core Coach you will help bring the game to the next generation of players.

The course is a mix of on-line modules which you can take at home and face-to-face modules aimed at helping you build your confidence in delivering player-centred coaching sessions.

We only have a small number of places left, so if you want to get involved, we'd love to see you. Click on the link to book your place - https://booking.ecb.co.uk/G2xryX

Next Sunday we are running a brilliant ECB Support Coach Course on the lovely grounds of Chippenham Cricket Club (a beautiful ground worth visiting any time of year!).

The Support Coach course is designed to give learners the knowledge, skills and confidence to support qualified coaches.

While an ECB Support Coach is not qualified to lead sessions independently, they are an important part of any club looking to develop and further expand the number of players they have, whether that be in Men's, Women's, Boys or Girl cricket..... and we know many clubs in Cambridgeshire have this objective.

The course combines both online work (2 modules each lasting 10-15 minutes) and 1 x 3 hour face-to-face module which looks at how you communicate with those attending a training session, support batting, bowling and fielding drills and most importantly keep everyone safe and ensure everyone has fun!

You must be 16 and prior to certification you must have completed the Safeguarding in Specialist Roles training and have a valid ECB DBS.
Support Coaches really do make a difference to the game and this course is a great place to start your coaching journey!

So, the specific details of the course are:

ECB Support Coach
Date – 29th September
Time – 10.00am to 1pm
Venue – Chippenham Cricket Club, Parkside, Chippenham, Cambs, CB7 5PS

Here at Cambridgeshire Cricket we are running two

Here at Cambridgeshire Cricket we are running two First Aid course on Wednesday, 13th November at the Spicers Sports Ground Pavilion, Cambridge Road, Sawston from one starting at 1.45pm, the other starting at 6.15pm.

At each game or training session we never know what might happen and in each season there is invariably something happen at each club when First Aid is needed to be provided.

We are aware from some clubs, there was concern last season where they felt exposed. The closed season is an excellent time to take stock and get members trained to cover any shortfall and make sure your club has sufficient members trained.

Our training is delivered by the brilliant Emma Walker, who will provide all participants with the confidence and knowledge to step forwards and make a difference when someone else really needs them.

On the course starting at 13.45 there are just 2 places left - to snap them up please use this link - https://booking.ecb.co.uk/b4RZzk

On the course starting at 18.15 there are 10 places left - to book onto this course please click on this link https://booking.ecb.co.uk/RmRYPE

Club Safeguarding Officers (CSO) are vital members

Club Safeguarding Officers (CSO) are vital members of the club and key to making an environment safe, welcoming and friendly for everyone to enjoy the game of cricket.

As well as holding a valid DBS certificate, CSO need to complete three sets of training:
- Online ‘Safeguarding for Specialist Roles’
- A ‘top up’ online module – ‘Safeguarding for Committee Members and Club Safeguarding Officers’
- Face to face ‘Safe Hands' workshop which is run by the local County Cricket Board

Below are dates of training courses that cover Point 3 and are aimed to provide you with the knowledge that will make your life as a CSO easier, the courses are great for getting to know other Club CSOs, sharing experience and proves you are supported by Cambridgeshire Cricket and by the ECB as well.

These courses should be updated every 3 years and in Cambridgeshire we are aware that many CSO training will expire and needs to be refreshed and we are aware that Club Safeguarding Officers change.

Course 1
The date is 25th February 2025 starting at 6.15pm
The venue for the training is Over Community Centre, 16 The Doles, Over, CB24 5NW
Cost is £20 per delegate, the link to book your place is here - https://booking.ecb.co.uk/wmq9ZQ

Cost is £20 per delegate, the link to book is here - https://booking.ecb.co.uk/8eMbVA

Please remember that as part of your Club Affiliation Process each club agrees to comply with the ECB Safe Hands Policy and therefore each club should have a fully qualified CSO by the start of the 2025 season.

It is also good practice for Clubs to have a full trained deputy CSO.
In Cambs there will be no more courses in 2025 after the course on 1st May so please do book your place. If you have any questions please contact Neil Liversedge (neil.liversedge@cambscricket.org.uk)

Cambridgeshire Cricket is running talent developme

Cambridgeshire Cricket is running talent development centres across the County in 2024-25 for boys and girls who are aged 9-11 years (school years 4,5 or 6 school years). These centres fit into our overall aim to provide opportunities for as many players as possible to experience higher level coaching and matches alongside broader talent identification and player development. There will be no Cambridgeshire County Age Group teams in 2025 at under 10 or 11 level for girls or boys.

The selection process to get into one of the talent development centres will be done at an observation session where players will be able to demonstrate their ability and attitude. If a player wishes to be observed, please fill in the following form (link in Bio) you will then receive an invite and registration link to a specific session. While hard ball experience is not essential these sessions will focus on hard ball cricket. We will provide equipment where necessary.

We anticipate that players who are offered a place in a talent development centre programme will be offered in the region of 16 hours coaching over the winter with the opportunity to play in a series of matches during the summer of 2025.

Deadline for completing an Expression of Interest is Monday 30th September

With 4 days left before the booking expiry date, t

With 4 days left before the booking expiry date, there are only 3 spaces left on the ECB Introduction to Umpiring Course. So do not miss out, book your place now.

This course, delivered by ECB appointed tutors, with years of umpiring and coaching experience, is designed to give new umpires the key skills, knowledge and confidence to stand as an umpire.

The date is Sunday, 22nd September between 10.30am and 5pm at Cottenham Village Pavilion.

The course is suited to a young person aged 14 and above and whether you plan to support Junior Softball cricket through to adult cricket, this course will cover the following topics:

- Understanding the role of the umpire
- Gain a basic understanding of umpiring the game
- Answering appeals and the common methods of dismissal
- How to communicate effectively with all stakeholders in the game
- Judging whether or not it is safe to play

The course is split into classroom and practical learning, so we recommend learners to come dressed appropriately. Prior to the course starting Learners will be asked to complete some e-learning (which takes about an hour and a half to complete).

There is a charge of £70, however the benefits you will receive following the course have a value far greater than the charge.

So please do not wait, book one of the remaining places now via this link - https://booking.ecb.co.uk/00leM9
