Welcome to the Edinburgh Academical Cricket Club (EACC) junior’s section. Despite our name and our close links with the Edinburgh Academy, “The Accies” is an open club and we welcome players (girls and boys) from any school who wants to play for us.
We are a member of the Lothian Junior Cricket Development Group and we have sides in the U15 and U13 leagues. We also play in Kwik Cricket (U10) Festivals in the Lothian area and we usually host our own festival at some point during the summer. We are also hoping to introduce an U11 side in season 2012, playing hardball cricket against other local clubs. Refer to fixtures and results for more details.
To complement these matches, we offer training sessions during the school summer term for senior school children on Tuesdays and Thursday afternoons and on Sunday mornings for primary school children. Please refer to training section for more details.
During the summer holidays our training sessions become more flexible and we also run summer camps, open to non-members as well. Please refer to summer holiday cricket for details.
We work closely with Cricket Scotland (www.cricketscotland.com) and we are part of its TopClub scheme. The scheme aims to raise the standard of Junior Cricket in Scotland, as well as to ensure that we are health and safety compliant and that we maintain excellent standards of child protection. Please refer to the policies section for more details.
Please have a look around our site for more details of the club. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact the junior convenor, Geraint Jones on eaccjuniorconvenor@gmail.com.
We look forward to seeing you at the club very soon.
