Juniors - Claremont Nedlands Cricket Club

Junior Club

The Claremont Nedlands Junior Cricket Club has 43 teams located in the western suburbs of Perth.

We had 600+ players, from 5 year olds to 17 year olds, registered for the 2019-2020 season participate in our local zone competitions and in the programme. The Club thrives through the volunteer efforts of parents in coaching and managing the various teams and also in working on our Committee. Please let us know if you can provide assistance in these roles, or by sponsoring our Club.

The Club's philosophy is to focus on developing the children's cricket skills and love for the game making sure everyone gets a fair go and can really enjoy their cricket no matter what level you are.

The Club requires our coaches to obtain a Cricket Australia Level 1 coaching qualification to improve the level of coaching being offered to our junior cricketers. The Club is keen to ensure all our juniors receive better coaching and one aspect of this is to ensure our coaches have the requisite skills.
