Bedfordshire Cricket Ltd runs County Representative Cricket under the banner of Bedfordshire Young Cricketers. The Bedfordshire Young Cricketers Programme delivers high-quality coaching and playing opportunities for the best players that are selected from clubs and schools who are motivated and aspire to improve their game.
Players are recruited into our squads through our trials process. This process involves asking all clubs and schools within the county to nominate the players they feel are capable of playing representative cricket. These players are then invited to attend a trial for our winter training squads from which we will select a squad of players to take us into the playing season.
For the 2017 season, Bedfordshire Young Cricketers will have teams represented at Under 17, 15, 14, 13, 12 and 11, and an Under 10 side. The sides will play a mixture of ECB-led competitions and friendly matches that will take the boys to counties all over the country. They will also play in festivals and tournaments such as the London Schools Festival, Malvern College, and Royal Hospital School, Ipswich. In 2015, our Under 15s won the Cambridgeshire T20 competition - pictured.
Please come and support the sides at any of their fixtures, details of which can be found at http://bedfordshire.play-cricket.com.
