Gidea Park & Romford CC runs junior sides at U9, U11, U13, U15 and U16 as well as providing coaching for younger age groups. The Club has been one of the most prominent in the county for over 20 years and produces many young cricketers who go on to play senior club cricket. In recent years, we are proud to have produced three Essex CCC players Stephen Peters, Barry Hyam and Andrew Hibbert.
Coaching evenings are held at the Gallows Corner ground on Friday evenings in the summer with a number of ECB qualified coaches and assistants. Indoor coaching also takes place during the winter.
