Girls EPP

This is the first time a programme of this scale has been offered to female players in Gloucestershire and the group will be made up of 13 players selected from across the County Age Group Pathway (Under 13 to Under 18).

The programme will give the selected young female cricketers access to an extra four hours a week of coaching across two venues, Hartpury College and Colston’s School. It is really exciting to be leading the way in this area as we go above and beyond to ensure the Girls Performance Pathway mirrors the opportunities within the Boys Pathway.

We are delighted to have secured an outstanding coaching team with extensive experience in girls’ cricket and developing young players who will be led by Luke Sellers our new Under 18s Girls Coach. Luke has been involved in county age group cricket for more than 15 years and was involved in Gloucestershire’s previous Girls EPP.

The other coaches include England World Cup winner Fran Wilson, new Gloucestershire Women’s coach Ralph Hardwick, and Matt Hunkin who coaches with both Glooucestershire Women and U18s. The players will also receive Strength and Conditioning support from Jonathan Vickers.

In addition, Laura also leads the Girls County Age Group winter and summer Programmes from U11’s through to U18’s and County Women. No day is the same, making each day extremely exciting and rewarding as the Women and Girls game continues to go from strength to strength.
