Youth Cricket
 Introduction
At Bicester & North Oxford we pride ourselves on the quality of our youth coaching. Approximately 50% of our senior sides are players that have developed through our youth set up. We have had many players go on to play representative cricket for Oxfordshire and Northamptonshire.
Youth Teams
We run youth sides at Under 11, Under 13, Under 15 and Under 17 levels. These sides play fixtures during the season. Members of the Under 17 squad will usually attend senior training. Players in the younger age groups attend Youth Coaching (see below)
Winter Youth Coaching 
Winter youth coaching in 2012 will take place every Sunday morning from 22 January until the end of March.
Timings are:
