Thank you to Somerset Cricket Board and Chance to Shine for putting together the following cricket challenges for secondary aged children.

There are 6 challenges with different targets for the 3 levels of Explore, Develop and Conquer.

If you are new to cricket start with the Explore challenges.

If you have played some cricket, perhaps at school try the Develop challenges.

If you are a club player or have played a lot of cricket try the Conquer challenges.

Equipment:

You will need something to hit with, e.g.  cricket bat, tennis racket, frying pan, stick

Something to hit/throw/bowl, e.g. ball, rolled up socks, scrunched up tin foil

Target to hit, e.g. stumps, cones, bin, chair, washing basket

Note

All of the videos have individual challenges, plus an optional pairs activity that you could try with an adult or a sibling.
