Little Stoke Cricket Academy
To reinforce the claim that Little Stoke is a hotbed of talent. In 2007 twelve of our juniors actually played for Staffordshire Youth Charity.
To continue this development and to maximise the potential of their young players, Little Stoke are launching an Academy scheme that brings some of the best coaches in Staffordshire to their club to work throughout the age groups.
At the top of our junior squads we will form a group of under 20's squad who will be coached by Graham Warner the successful Staffordshire Coach and former Warwickshire Batsman. Graham will be supported by Richard Harvey Staffordshire Captain and Rob Hayden Club Captain.
The main objective of this squad is to aid the transition for young players from Junior to Senior Teams.
