Women’s Cricket at Folkestone Cricket Club!

We’re excited to introduce women’s soft ball cricket at Three Hills!

This fun and social format is all about enjoying the game, with simple rules designed to make it easy to pick up and play. Soft ball cricket has grown in popularity in recent years, bringing women of all ages and backgrounds together to have a great time on and off the field.
If you’re looking to meet new people, stay active, and enjoy the outdoors this summer, why not give it a go?
Ladies of all ages and experience are welcome.

Where and when?

We’ll be holding weekly training sessions at the club on Friday evenings from 18:00 – 19:30.
These sessions are perfect for beginners to learn the basics, and for experienced players to improve their skills.
Over the summer, we’ll also try to arrange in-house matches or friendlies with other clubs – great for enjoying the game in a relaxed, social atmosphere (the bar is always open)!

What is soft ball cricket?

Soft ball cricket is a fun, fast-paced, and social version of cricket designed to be accessible for players of all abilities. Instead of a traditional hard cricket ball, a softer ball is used, making it safer and eliminating the need for heavy protective gear.

So… do I need any special kit or prior experience?

In short – no! Just a decent pair of trainers and you’re good to go. We provide all the kit.
