The next step for the children is moving away from the softer ball (GIRLS SMASH) to incredible balls to play T16 YOUTH GIRLS BUDDY CRICKET. This format will provide our participants with a real feel of cricket, as players use all the same protective equipment as their Stags/Hinds/Blackcap/White Fern heroes. It’s designed to provide equal participation opportunities in a fun and inclusive environment. Skill development and enjoyment of our players are the main priority of this grade. T16 Youth Girls Buddy Cricket create opportunities for its players to experience a more realistic cricket match.
