Our emphasis at Finchley is on inclusion and fun and we offer every level of
Junior cricket for boys and girls of all ages and abilities, from U6s-U19s, and all with a pathway into adult cricket. Throughout this age spectrum, we range from beginners to junior cricketers participating in County and London Schools squads

Please come and join us – not just for the cricket but to also enjoy our special family atmosphere. We encourage our junior cricketers to see the club as something of a second home, and we look forward to a season of cricket fun, development and friendship, and of course some great games and some wins!!

Registration/payment
For 2025 season, we are using a new system (Club Control) to take payments for subscription. Members will be able to download a new club app which is still waiting to be commissioned and once it is available to download via Google/Apple play store, we will send out a notification. Alternatively, payments can also be done via the bar till.

For the 2025 season, the club has decided to keep the subscription amount to be the same as last year. This will help us cover all associated costs of coaching, training and match material, match balls and ground hire and preparation:
