Hutton Cricket Club

Women and Girls Competitions 2022

COMPETITIONS ENTERED IN 2022
     U9/U10 Softball League
Organised by the Central District, we play our newest and youngest girls in these leagues. As this is a boys league, girls are able to play a year or sometimes two years down so we can invite players from year 7 and below.  Teams are generally 8 or 10 a side and the girls play in pairs, ensuring everyone get to bat and to bowl. When a wicket falls, runs are deducted from the batting sides's total and the player stays in to have another go.
    Lady Taverners U13 and U15 T20 Competition
A national knockout cup competition played at two age groups.  These are hardball matches, 8 a side T20 games.  Hutton has a team entered at each age group this season.  The U13s are in group 3 and the U15s are in group 2

  Lady Taverners U19 T20 Competition
New for 2022, to help bridge the gap between U15 and open age (adult) cricket, the ECB has introduced the U19 Lady Taverners knockout competition  Hutton is very excited to be entering a team in its inaugural season.


 
  U11, U13 and U17 West Essex Girls League
An informal all girl league set up by Hutton in collaboration with a number of local girls' clubs to ensure plenty of cricket for the girls. This season we will enter teams at all u11, u13 and the new u17 age groups.   Matches are generally played with 8 a side and are played in a very friendly spirit. A great introduction for newer players as well as good games for the more experienced.  

    U11, U13 and U15 County Hardball Competition
This is a formal competition runs at u11, u13 and u15 age groups with winners from each of the age groups going forward to a regional final.  To help with administering the competition, the age group matches will be included as named divisions in the WEG League mentioned above.  In 2019, Hutton U15 girls represented Essex at the Regional Final, where they played a strong Reigate Priory representing Sussex.
    Essex Women's T20 League
Formerly known as the Beaumont Seymour League, this is a well established T20 league played on Friday nights from end of April till mid July.  While the games are certainly competitive, they are also very good fun and a great introduction to the women's game.  There are 8 teams in our division this season (South) and we are looking to use this league to develop our players and ensure everyone gets to enjoy some fun cricket.
  National Women's Club T20 Competition
Although a long established competition, Hutton is entering a team for the first time this season.  We are looking forward to the draw and to seeing who our first opponent will be.
     
Essex Women's Premier League (EWPL)
Established in 2020, this is the elite 40 over league for Essex clubs.  With 8 clubs forming the league and each being played home and away we have 14 fixtures to look forward to this season.  

    Hutton Hildas - Softball
In 2021 we introduced ladies softball and have attracted many players who are brand new to cricket. This is for any player over the age of 16 who would like to play but doesn't want to pad up.  It is for those new to the game, who prefer to learn their craft with softball before attempting hardball and also for those who have no intention of ever padding up - they just want to have a bit of fun and keep fit.  If you're 16ish or over and want to give it a go - you're very welcome.
