Girls’ and WOMen’s Cricket at Teddington CC
A new dawn for Women’s and Girl’s cricket in Teddington
Bushy Park Girls Cricket Club (BPG) and Teddington Cricket Club (TCC) are delighted to announce a merger of the two clubs, to increase the opportunities and accessibility for girls’ and women’s cricket in the local area.
Following a successful vote at the BPG AGM on 13th March, BPG has confirmed it will merge with TCC to form the women and girls’ section of TCC. The move will provide financial stability for the future of women's and girls’ cricket and will work to strengthen the existing team offerings at TCC.
Speaking on the merger, BPG chair Shelley Sheridan says
“We are really excited to open up new possibilities for future development. It’s a great time to be involved in women’s and girls’ cricket and brings together two clubs committed to providing these opportunities for female cricket.”
Also commenting on the merger, TCC Chair William Frewen had to say
“We are delighted to be welcoming BPG and its women’s and girls’ teams to join the TCC family. It is an extremely exciting moment for both clubs and a pivotal moment for the local community. We are confident this move will further expand the opportunities for women and girls of all backgrounds to fall in love with cricket whilst also being able to benefit from the sport as a whole - whether that be having fun with new friends and teammates, developing confidence and skills or playing at the highest level.”
At present, the under 5-8 age groups will remain mixed, with the U9 and upwards providing TCC girls with the option to train and play matches in a girls-only environment alongside the existing 100-plus BPG members. Girls from BPG and TCC will also be able to train and play in the TCC mixed teams. This year will also see the addition of soft ball and competitive cricket opportunities for women alongside our continued participation in the Middlesex Women's 30-over hardball league.
