LEARN TO PLAY CRICKET! THE FASTEST GROWING SPORT IN THE WORLD!

With the regular season starting on the last weekend of April, outdoor training commences once the weather permits. This is usually the first week of April. Please check this page in the spring for the training program. We have 2 permanent nets and one portable net for centre wicket practice.

West Vancouver Cricket Club has the largest junior cricket program in Vancouver with three teams playing. Over 40 young players from across Metro Vancouver are enrolled in our program and play in the spring / summer season (May to July).

The main aim of the club is to provide healthy recreation in an enjoyable, optimistic environment while playing a sport! With the help of our junior coaches, senior cricketers and hopefully some enthusiastic parents, we are confident of another outstanding year ahead.

SUMMER CAMP

Kanga or softball cricket is the ideal way to introduce your child to the basic skills of cricket. The modified program works on the effective method of introducing and practicing a skill then following it with a game. This method has proved both a learning and enjoyable environment for all our budding young cricketers in both our junior program and our summer camps.

The program also offers regulation hardball cricket geared towards those who possess past experience in the game. The rotational program will see participants take part in a number of cricket sessions under the guidance of professional coaches and players. Training sessions, including batting and bowling provide a great opportunity to learn and improve and modified games are regular features.

Cricket can be played by both boys and girls and we welcome kids of all abilities and skills levels.
