Junior English Willow Cricket Bats FAQs


What size cricket bat should my child use?

Choosing the right size depends on your child’s height and age. For example, a 10-year-old will typically use a Size 5 or Size 6 bat, while players aged 11–13 may suit a Harrow. Our Junior Cricket Bats range includes all sizes from Size 3 to Academy to help you find the perfect fit.

What’s the best type of willow for junior cricket bats?

All of our Junior Cricket Bats are made from premium English willow, available in Players Grade, Grade 1, Grade 2, and Grade 3. The right option depends on your budget and the level your child plays at, but every bat in our collection offers outstanding quality and performance.

How do I choose the right junior cricket bat?

Start with your child’s height and age, then consider their strength and experience. A well-sized bat should allow for easy pickup, proper technique, and control at the crease. Lightweight bats with a good middle help juniors time the ball better and build confidence.

Do junior cricket bats need knocking in?

Yes, all English willow cricket bats, including junior ones, benefit from being knocked in before match use. This process strengthens the fibres in the bat face and edges, helping reduce the risk of cracks and increasing the bat’s lifespan and performance.

Does the grade of a cricket bat really matter for juniors?

Bat grade can affect performance, but it mostly comes down to budget and expectations. Players Grade and Grade 1 willow offer premium performance and looks, while Grade 2 and Grade 3 are more affordable yet still deliver excellent quality and ping for junior cricketers.
