Key benefits

Who it's for

Primary school PE classes, holiday programmes and juniors starting out, with players about 9 to 11 years. Younger children fare better with a size 3; older players move to size 5, 6 or Harrow.

Sizing guide

The sizing guide says the ideal bat length equals the inside measurement of the batter's trousers. Test the weight by holding the bat out horizontally in the non-dominant hand for a minute without strain.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a match bat?

No. It is a plastic bat for PE and playground cricket. For hard-ball play, look at the wooden bats in our cricket range.

Which ball goes with it?

Use it with the Yellow PVC Cricket Ball Jnr or the plastic stumps and base from the same junior range.

BAT: The ideal length for a bat is the inside measurement of the batsman’s trousers. Children over the age of seven fare best with bats that weigh no more than a kilogram.

TIP: Lift the bat in the non-dominant hand (i.e.: The left hand if right-handed), and to hold it out horizontally with the shoulder for one minute. If he can do this without strain or difficulty, the weight is correct.
