22 girls have been selected to take part in the LCB skills programme where they
will recieve specilised coaching tailored to their discipline.

The Skills Programme for the girls is run slightly different to the boys where a
small group of girls is selected in each of the disciplines. They will then
attend 4 2 hour sessions to work on their skills, understanding their game and
develop as cricketers. There will be level 3 coaches on hand to guide the
players. The Skills Programme sits just below the Emerging Players Programme
(EPP) and gives the coaches a chance to assess the players for their readiness
for the EPP.
The players below have been selected by squad coaches, Jen Laycock (W&GCDO) and
Steve Titchard Performance Manager. They have been highlighted as being the top
players in their age group at their particular discipline. During these sessions
the girls will also attend workshops on various topics including fitness and
it’s important for cricket, player pathway- LCB and ECB, and Performance
Analysis.
