Empowering Female Cricketers with Trogon’s Ladies Cricket Bats
At Trogon Cricket, we understand the evolving needs of the modern female cricketer. As the father of a cricket-mad female, I know what it's like constantly looking at men's and boys' cricket equipment and getting asked, 'Why are they always labelled for boys, Dad?' So I get it!
Over the years, women's cricket has gained immense popularity globally, and we are proud to support this growth with our specially designed ladies' cricket bats.
With an emphasis on performance, balance, and comfort, our collection of ladies' lightweight cricket bats is tailored to the specific needs of female players, ensuring they can take their game to the next level.
A Bat Built for Female Cricketers
One of the most important factors when choosing the right bat is finding the ideal weight and pick-up. I have written extensively about cricket bat pick-up, so be ready before buying.
Female cricketers often prefer lighter bats due to their physical attributes. This is not always the case, but it is mostly the case. So, at Trogon, we've created a range of female cricket bats that prioritize weight without sacrificing power or durability.
Our ladies' cricket bats, ranging from 2lb 3oz to 2lb 7oz, have been carefully handmade to provide female players with an optimum balance between weight and power.
Despite being lightweight, these bats have large edges and spines, meaning more wood is left around the middle area, so don't worry.
When buying any cricket bat of any size, you need to consider the pick-up and ensure it's comfortable in the batter's stance and pick-up. Nothing is worse than buying a cricket bat, the excitement of getting it home, and realizing it's too heavy.
Handmade with Precision and Passion
At Trogon Cricket, craftsmanship is at the core of everything we do. Every bat in our ladies' cricket bat range is handcrafted in our workshop, ensuring that each piece meets the highest standards of quality and performance.
From the careful selection of the willow (all grades available, grade 1, grade 2 and butterfly) to the shaping, pressing (we press all our wood in-house), and finishing touches, our attention to detail is what sets us apart.
Trogon Bat Pressing
Every bat is pressed to ensure the ideal balance between performance and longevity. We offer our ladies' lightweight cricket bats in all grades, from Players Grade for professional-level performance to Grades 1, 2, and 3, catering to cricketers of every skill level, and they meet the MCC rules and regulations on cricket bats.
Why Opt for a Ladies-Specific Bat?
While it's true that many women use standard cricket bats (short handles and other sizes), our female cricket bats are specifically designed to meet the physical demands of the women’s game.
Standard adult-sized bats, particularly those designed for male players, tend to be heavier, making it harder for female cricketers to generate the bat speed and control needed for precision shots.
Our bats are tailored not just for lighter weight but also for the ergonomic needs of female players. Each bat's handle, balance, and pickup are designed to maximize comfort and reduce fatigue during long innings.
Trogon Top Tip
Our ladies' crickets are lighter; we do this by making them slightly narrower than a traditional short-handle cricket bat. We do this as it lets us keep the large profiles, big edges, large toes and, importantly, a large spine and sweet spot while keeping the bat lightweight.
Custom Options for Personalized Performance
We recognize that no two cricketers are alike. This is why we offer all of our ladies' lightweight cricket bats in different grades, from our Player's Grade to our Grade 1, 2, and 3 bats.
Each grade offers something different, catering to varying skill levels and performance demands:
- Players Grade: Made from the finest Grade 1+ English willow, these are for elite players who need the highest performance.
- Grade 1: These bats are crafted from premium Grade 1 English willow, providing superior power, balance, and durability.
- Grade 2: A great option for intermediate players, offering a blend of performance and value.
- Grade 3: Perfect for developing players or those new to the game, providing great balance and playability.
By offering this range of grades, we ensure that every female cricketer, from beginners to professionals, can find a bat that suits their game.
Style Meets Function
The aesthetic appeal of our ladies' cricket bats is equally important. Each bat is engineered for performance and crafted to look stunning. We offer a range of sticker finishes, which can be found here.
Buying a Cricket Bat Is an Investment
Buying a cricket bat is an investment. They are expensive, and there is no getting away from that. However, to protect your investment, each bat comes with a custom bat cover and toe guard, ensuring your bat stays in prime condition, whether you're in the nets or playing matches. We also have a cricket bat warranty scheme. It's certainly worth a read.
Trogon's Commitment to Female Cricketers
At Trogon Cricket, we're committed to supporting female cricketers by offering gear that helps them excel on the field. We understand that as the women's game continues to grow, so does the need for equipment that caters specifically to the female body and playing style.

How to find the perfect cricket bat weight
The best way to check the cricket bat weight is to hold the cricket out in front of you with a straight arm; if the bat is too heavy for you to hold, then it's the wrong weight; if the bat feels comfortable and you feel you can hold it for ages, then this is the correct weight. The best option is to try this routine with different weights.
Conclusion: Custom-Made Bats for Your Needs
We understand that even with a wide range of ladies' cricket bats, a player may be unable to find exactly what they're looking for, particularly when it comes to weight.
If that's the case, don't worry—we offer a bespoke bat-making service. If you cannot find the right weight in our range, we can custom-make a bat to fit your exact specifications.
