Purpose:

The Japan Under 15 League was created in 2016 to give more playing opportunities to young cricketers in Japan. It was was intended as a way to identify talented players who have the potential to represent Japan in the future.

In 2017 the JCA would like to offer the opportunity to the best and most committed cricketers (boys and girls) to take part in a two-day camp in Sano.

The Camp will be run by a Level Three coach from Cricket Victoria who will also work with our Men’s and Women’s National Teams while in Japan.

This program will give young cricketers a chance to receive a higher level of coaching and a valuable insight into what life in a High Performance environment is like.

We hope to prepare these players to represent Japan at Under 19 in the future, which would include the opportunity to compete for a place in the U19 World Cup every two years.

Registration:

There are only 30 places available. The JCA will be officially inviting 20-25 players who have been identified through their performances in Under 15 Competitions. The remaining places will be on a first come – first served basis.

The form is attached along with this information sheet, and those officially invited they must reply by Friday 26th May.  All other applicants will need to be filed by Friday 30th June.

Future Plans:

We hope that this will become a regular part of the JCA calendar and that we can continue developing talented cricketers throughout Japan at a young age and give them more opportunities to learn and develop their skills.
