Ladies Cricket

Ladies’ cricket is thriving at Paarl Cricket Club and fits perfectly into our family club culture. We are one of the few clubs in the Premier League that consist of a team and also created an environment specifically for the development of lady cricketers. We encourage all sisters, wives, girlfriends or any ladies from the age of 15 to become part of the Paarl Cricket Club Ladies cricket program. The past stigma of ladies playing cricket are long gone, and today the modern lady cricketer has as many opportunities in the world of cricket as any other women’s sport. For Paarl Cricket Club, the profile of female cricket players is equal to males, and is comparable to ladies in sports like hockey, tennis and golf.

Paarl Cricket Club have one (1) Ladies teams competing in the Boland Ladies leagues.

Junior Cricket

Paarl Cricket Club is in the process of starting of our junior cricket structure section that will cater for young cricketers from under-9 to under-18.

Fun is a major motivator for children to play cricket. Our coaches are urged to not only focus on the winning of matches, but to develop a love of the game through the fun and excitement of competing. Paarl CC value the holistic development of children, and measure success on whether children choose to continue to play cricket the next season.

This approach is used to develop junior skills and align it with Paarl CC’ senior structures to prepare them for the different roles within a team environment and the different playing strategies.
