Cambridgeshire Cricket is pleased to announce its plans for its performance pathways for boys and girls for the 2024-2025 season. These plans look to provide opportunities for as many players as possible to experience higher level coaching and matches alongside broader talent identification and player development.

County Age Group representative squads will be run at under 12, u13, u14, u15, u16, and under 18 for boys, and at under 13, 15 (expanded squads), and under 18 for girls. At under 11 level, talent development centres will be established for boys and girls – one to the north and one to the south of the County. These will not be recognised County squads.

Open observation sessions will be held towards the end of August and through September for all players who are not in a County Age Group squad in 2024.

For u12, u13, u14 boys, and u13 to u15 girls (expanded squads capturing u12 and u14 girls), if you would like to be included in one of these observations please complete this Expression of Interest (EOI) form. Deadline is Sunday 11^th August 2024. Once we receive an EOI from a player, we will have more of an opportunity to witness the interested player in action during the 2024 season too. (NB. 2024 CAG players will automatically be filtered into the observation and selection process for 2024-2025 squads).

Players interested in being observed for the Boys’ under 15, u16 and u18 squads and for the Girls’ under 18 squad will be initially observed through a video and performance submission, more details of which can be found here . Players in all other boys’ and girls’ age groups will be observed in person.

We are hopeful of all squads being confirmed by mid-October which will allow an Autumn and Winter period of indoor squad and specialist sessions to commence soon after.
