Ditchling Juniors is about enjoying cricket. Cricket that is played in the right spirit. Ditchling is a special club, a small village club that plays some very big fixtures - because people enjoy playing us. Ditchling juniors should learn the basics - how to bat, bowl, field and to behave (on and off the field).
Happily since we started in 2004 we've been quite successful. We win more matches than we lose and we've got some fantastic young players.
Our core values are:
- Having fun; it's a game, it's played best with a smile on your face.
- Sportsmanship; respecting the umpire's decision, supporting your team mate when he or she drops a catch, applauding great cricket (whoever is responsible).
- Safety; the juniors' safety should always be considered.
