Develop your Club

The role of Development is to promote and develop the game of cricket in Surrey Cricket’s five districts of East, West, Central, Inner London and Outer London. The foundation for any club is its youth structure. By encouraging and attracting young members, clubs are building a strong future for themselves.

Surrey Cricket ran 5 District Road Shows - Inner London (2.0 MB), Outer London (2.0 MB), East Surrey (2.1 MB), Central Surrey (2.0 MB) and West Surrey (2.0 MB) - these are being run to learn about the proposed rollout of District Development Groups (DDG) and have an opportunity to discuss cricket related issues with the Surrey Cricket Development Team.
