Cricket for Primary Schools

Primary Schools Cricket Programme 

Meath Local Sports Partnership and Cricket Leinster have been working together to promote the sport of Cricket for children in Meath. 

Description: The Schools Cricket programme provides young cricketers with exciting, challenging & enjoyable cricket experiences. The structure of Schools Cricket includes: shorter games, modified rules and lighter equipment ensuring children are placed front-and-centre in terms of experience and their enjoyment of learning the game of cricket is first-and-foremost. The programme sees schools committing to teacher training, 4-6 weeks of coaching and participation in a School Blitz.

Feedback from Teachers & Pupils

  • “

    We are delighted to have the opportunity to bring Cricket to our school as part of our sports programme. The teacher training was top class and the equipment we received is fantastic, it makes it so much easier to introduce a new sport like Cricket when you have all the training resources at hand.
