Hunslet Nelson Cricket Club is calling on local women and girls to pick up a bat and ball and get involved in the fast-growing world of soft ball cricket.
The club, based on Gipsy Lane Beeston, is keen to expand its women and girls’ section and is welcoming new players of all abilities – from complete beginners to those with previous experience. Whether you’re looking to get active, meet new people, or try something new, soft ball cricket offers a fun and inclusive way to enjoy the sport.
Training sessions are held every Wednesday evening from 6-7:30pm at the club’s grounds and are led by qualified and friendly coaches who ensure a supportive and relaxed environment for all ages and skill levels.
“Soft ball cricket is a brilliant way for women and girls to enjoy the game in a fun and pressure-free setting,” said coach Brian Calverley. “It’s a great way to get moving, learn something new, and be part of a welcoming team.”
No equipment or previous experience is necessary – just turn up in comfortable sportswear and bring your enthusiasm!
