The Clubs Colts section is
presently thriving. Five Colts Teams will compete
in the West Midlands Youth Cricket League in the 2007 season,
Under 17, Under 15, Under 13, Under 11 and Under 10.
In the 2006 season an under 10 side was entered in the league for the first time
and came away from their first fixture with a win against Bronze Under 10's.
The strength of the Colts section is due to an upsurge in younger members over
the last year which is as a direct result of the Clubs commitment to coaching at
local primary schools. All Colts sides had an encouraging 2006 season.
In the 2007 season, Bloxwich Cricket Club will be entering a girls under 15 team into
the Cannock Chase Cricket Development Group Girls Cricket League.
During the season training sessions are held at 9.30am until midday every Sunday morning
starting 1stApril
at the Clubs Stafford Road Ground, supervised by Mark Allcock, Colts Organiser, and
our trained coaches.
In the coming 2007 season the
Colts Section at Bloxwich Cricket Club is now starting its
10th year since being resurrected. In the first year there was one qualified coach,
in the second year there were two, in the third year there were four. Last year there were
9
ECB level 1 qualified coaches and the club also has an ECB level 2 coach, Colts Organiser,
Mark Allcock. Three Club members will be taking ECB level 1 courses over the 2006/2007
Winter ready for the 2007 season.

In addition to coaching and training the Colts now have

week from late April to mid July at Under 10, Under 11,
Under 13, Under 15 and Under 17 levels playing in the
West Midlands Youth Leagues.

Coaching and home games are held at the Clubs grounds
at Bloxwich Stafford Road Sports Club.
Parents are relied upon to assist with transport to away
games but this season we will have three coaches trained
and qualified to drive the Walsall Community Transport
mini buses which the Club will be hiring.
Each Colts team has a Team Manager, one of the Clubs
qualified coaches, who attends coaching sessions and
matches with their respective team.

Bloxwich Cricket Club and
Willenhall School
Sports College are working together following
funding from Sport England to encourage
youngsters to join their local cricket club.
Over six weeks in March and April
for the last 2 years 11 to 14 year olds
attending Willenhall School Sports College
received coaching from the Walsall Cricket
Development Officer at the Schools indoor facilities.
The next stage is to introduce the youngsters to
Bloxwich Cricket Club who provided coaching
and the use of their outdoor facilities. The aim of
the scheme is to give youngsters an insight
encouraging them to join their local clubs and is
fully supported by Bloxwich Cricket Club.
