Hi! I’m Len. A cricket-mad dad who’s spent a lifetime chasing the perfect bat. Years ago, I struggled to find a high-quality cricket bat that didn’t cost the earth — so I decided to make my own. That’s how Trogon Cricket was born: a place where every bat is handmade by me using traditional tools and the best English willow, giving players top-level performance without the sky-high price. My hope is that our bats help cricketers of all ages play with confidence, passion, and a smile. And it’s not just bats — I’ve sourced top-quality pads, gloves, and other softs from trusted suppliers, ensuring every piece of gear offers exceptional protection and comfort at a price that makes sense. Whether you’re walking out to bat or diving in the field, our equipment is made to help you play your best without breaking the bank.

Awesome bat! Great bat and loved everything about it. Amazing stick. Awesome bat! Great bat and loved everything about it.
This was ready from the off and the best bat I've ever bought. Best bat ever! Picked up this beauty in the winter, ready for pre season as its an absolute gun of a bat! Usually bats take 2/3 years to bed in and find there best, but this was ready from the off and the best bat I've ever bought!
It's changed her game completely! Perfect shape and beautifully light. I bought this for my daughter last week and it's changed her game completely! She's not the strongest girl on the pitch which makes the weight of this bat perfect for her and makes it easy for her to handle. Highly recommend this bat for any budding cricketer!

Cricket Bat Warranty
Cricket can be an expensive game to play, that's why here at Trogon, we are proud to offer a comprehensive product warranty on all our cricket bats, and soft leather goods, so whether you're purchasing a custom-made bat, a pre-made bat, or one of our top-quality leather pads, gloves, or kit bags, you can be confident that if anything goes wrong your are covered.
Let's start with our cricket bats.
Our bats are built to last, but even the toughest equipment can be vulnerable to damage from time to time. That's why we offer a warranty on all of our bats that covers horizontal breakage for up to 6 months from the date of purchase.
If the blade of your bat should break horizontally across the grains within that time frame, we will replace it like-for-like, no questions asked.
However, it's important to note that not all damage is covered under our warranty.
For example, if the blade is broken due to a lack of knocking in, or if the edges are cracked or the toe is damaged due to facing a yorker, these are considered to be normal wear and tear and are not covered under warranty.
To activate the cricket bat warranty, please click on this Google Forms Warranty and complete the details.
A size 5 cricket bat is generally recommended for players aged around 9 to 11 years old, or those between approximately 4.92ft and 5.15ft tall. It's a common choice for juniors starting to develop proper technique and play more competitive matches.
If your child struggles to lift the bat easily or their backlift feels restricted, the bat may be too heavy. A bat should feel comfortable in their hands, allowing them to play a full range of shots without strain.
To choose the correct bat size, stand the bat vertically beside the child. The top of the handle should ideally reach their hip or waist. Comfort, control, and weight are just as important as the size itself.
The best bat size depends on the player’s height, age, and strength. For juniors between 4.92ft and 5.15ft, size 5 is generally the ideal option, balancing reach and control to support proper shot-making.
Grade 2 English willow bats offer a great balance between quality and affordability. They typically have fewer blemishes than lower grades but still provide excellent ping and durability, making them perfect for junior cricketers ready to take the next step in their development.
Designed for young cricketers who are growing in confidence, skill and developing their technique, our Grade 2 Size 5 English Willow Cricket Bat is ideal for boys and girls between 4.92ft and 5.15ft tall.
This is a bat built for runs, precision, and progression. It weighs just 1lb 15oz, offering a beautifully balanced feel with a light pick-up that makes every stroke easier to control, which is exactly what you need while they develop their technique. Whether your child is playing their first season of hardball or pushing for a spot in the team’s top order, this bat helps them stand tall at the crease.
This junior cricket bat features a large profile and excellent ping, giving young players the confidence to play their shots all around the ground, from front-foot drives to back-foot nurdles around the corner. Each piece is made from hand-selected Grade 2 English willow, giving a fantastic balance between quality and price. The shape has been carefully designed to ensure a lightweight pick-up without sacrificing the power junior players need. It’s a wise investment for parents looking to buy a bat that delivers game-day performance and long-lasting value.
More than just a bat, this is a stepping stone for the next stage of your child’s cricket journey. Whether used in weekend matches, club nets, or school fixtures, or just a hit around with their mates, it's large edges and spine profile give them the punch to clear the infield while retaining excellent control. It's also suitable for both boys and girls, and pairs perfectly with our junior cricket softs and accessories. This bat makes a great gift for birthdays or pre-season surprises, helping your young cricketer feel prepared and excited for the season ahead.
At Trogon Cricket, we specialise in handmade English willow cricket bats that are tailored to young cricketers.

We take pride in the details, from selecting the cleft to shaping the handle, because we know how important feel and finish are to a young batter.
Our bats have helped hundreds of juniors fall in love with the game, and we offer expert guidance to help parents find the right bat for their child. With years of experience and a real passion for youth cricket, our mission is to support the next generation of players with products they trust.
