Introducing cricket to the next generation through fun, inclusive programs
Cricket for Young Players
At Wellingborough Indians Cricket Club, we're passionate about introducing young people to the wonderful game of cricket. Our youth programs cater to children from ages 5 through to under 13, with a clear pathway from first introduction to competitive junior cricket.
We're an official ECB All Stars and Dynamos Cricket centre, delivering professionally designed programs that make cricket accessible and enjoyable for every child.
Our 2025 U11 squad recently won the Higham & District Youth League Cup - proof that our youth development pathway produces competitive cricketers!
