Junior Cricket at Carina Cricket Club
Carina Cricket Club offers Junior Cricket for ages U9s to U18s.
U9s and U10s is played with a softer ball on a shorter pitch, and with modified rules such as if you're out, you're not actually out.
From U11s onwards a leather ball is used, and you can get out. In U11s players still play on a shorter pitch and lbws aren't played.
From U12 onwards it is a full pitch and lbws are in play.

Due to the popularity of cricket within the district, competitions may schedule afternoon games to meet demand. These games usually go from 1-4:30pm.
