The Under 18 Development Squad compliments CV’s Emerging Player Program aiming to provide select players with additional training and match opportunities across the upcoming season.
The squad creates an important link between the Under 16 Female, U17 Male program and the Under 19 Emerging Player Program with coaching provided from Cricket Victoria Coaching and Talent Specialists and Emerging Player Program Coaches.
Victoria’s Emerging Players Program involves high-performance coaching and support for players to develop their skills technically, tactically, mentally and physically to enhance their preparation for the 2022-23 season.
The Female U18 development squad will play some pre-season matches in support of the U16 and U19 Emerging Player Program, occurring during the September school holidays. While the Male U18 group will have some match opportunities in February / March. Players may be added to this group if there are any outstanding performances during the summer.
Players selected have shown strong performances through Cricket Victoria pathway programs and Premier/Club cricket competitions.
