You don’t need to spend a fortune to find quality. Our Size 3 English Willow Cricket Bats also offer more affordable options, making them perfect for parents who want to shop smart without sacrificing quality.

These bats still offer strong performance, a lightweight pick-up, and handmade finishes that outperform many more expensive alternatives. They’re brilliant for growing kids who are improving rapidly and may outgrow their current size soon. Whether you're kitting them out for a holiday camp or upgrading after a plastic bat they used for All-Stars cricket, this range offers excellent value. Ideal as a birthday gift, starter bat, or training companion.

Size 3 English Willow Cricket Bats FAQs

What age is a Size 3 cricket bat for?

Size 3 cricket bats are typically suitable for children aged 6 to 7 years old, depending on their height and playing ability. They're ideal for players around 4'3" to 4'7" tall who are just starting their cricket journey.

What size bat should a 5-year-old use?

Most 5-year-olds are best suited to a Size 2 bat, though some taller or more confident players may transition into a Size 3.

How do I know if a cricket bat is too heavy for my child?

If your child struggles to lift the bat with control, drags the toe while playing shots, or can't play shots freely, the bat may be too heavy. A good junior bat should feel light in their hands and allow natural movement and confidence.

What is the difference between a Kashmir willow and an English willow cricket bat?

English willow is lighter, softer, and offers better ping and responsiveness, ideal for improving players. Kashmir willow is heavier and denser, often used in cheaper bats, but doesn’t offer the same level of performance or feel.

Can a child use an adult cricket bat?

Adult cricket bats are generally too heavy and long for junior players, especially those needing Size 3 bats. Using a bat that’s too large can hinder development and cause poor technique. It’s always best to choose the right size for their age and height.
