Our Trogon Cricket Story

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.

  • 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!

Trogon Cricket Value for Money

Premium english willow from Trogon cricket

When you choose a Trogon cricket bat, you’re choosing premium English willow carefully picked for its outstanding grains and performance. Every piece is shaped by hand to unlock maximum power and control, so whether you’re playing club cricket or chasing bigger goals, our cricket bats give you the advantage from the very first ball.

Lightweight Pick-ups

At Trogon, we know that weight, balance, and pick up are the three things that make the biggest difference when choosing a cricket bat, which is why every single cricket bat we make is designed with these in mind. A cricket bat that feels too heavy can slow your shots down, while one that’s too light won’t give you the power you need. That’s why we focus on creating the perfect balance, so your Trogon cricket bat feels comfortable in the hands and ready for every shot, whether you’re driving through the covers or pulling off the back foot. The real difference comes in the pick up. With a Trogon, you’ll feel like the bat is lighter than the scales suggest, giving you quick reactions, better timing, and more freedom at the crease. If you want a cricket bat that combines power, control, and confidence from the very first ball, a Trogon bat is built to deliver exactly that.

Premium English Willow

Hand applying a 'Trogon Cricket' brand label to a English willow cricket bat.

Trogon cricket bats are built to offer outstanding value for money because you’re not just paying for a piece of willow, you’re investing in performance, durability, and craftsmanship. Every Trogon cricket bat is handmade from carefully selected English willow, giving you the same attention to detail and quality finish you’d expect from far more expensive brands, without the inflated price tag. We keep our process simple: premium materials, traditional bat-making methods, and direct-to-player pricing. That means more of your money goes into the cricket bat itself, not flashy marketing campaigns or middlemen. With excellent ping, long-lasting performance, and the right balance to suit your game, a Trogon cricket bat gives you everything you need to perform at your best, while still leaving more in your pocket.

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.Ā 

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.Ā 

However, it's important to note that not all damage is covered under our warranty.Ā 

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.

A Grade 3 English Willow Cricket Bat FAQs


Is Grade 3 English willow good?

Yes, Grade 3 English willow is a solid option for serious cricketers looking for performance without a premium price tag. While it may have slightly more visual blemishes than higher grades, the ping and feel can still be outstanding, especially in a well-made bat like ours.

How many grains are in a Grade 3 cricket bat?

Grade 3 bats typically have 4 to 7 grains, although this can vary. The number of grains is less important than the performance, and our bats are selected for how they play, not just how they look.

Which weight is best for an English willow bat?

The ideal weight depends on your playing style, but many players favour something around 2lb 9oz to 2lb 11oz. Our Grade 3 bat weighs 2lb 11oz but picks up like 2lb 9oz, giving you the best of both power and control.

How long do English willow bats last?

With proper care, a quality English willow bat can last several seasons. Our handmade bats are pressed and finished for durability, so you can rely on them throughout your matches and training sessions.

Do cricket bats get better with age?

Yes, many players find that a bat gets better with use. As the fibres in the willow compress over time, the bat tends to develop a sweeter ping and more consistent response as long as the bat is properly looked after.

Grade 3 English Willow Cricket Bat for Serious Cricketers

Short Handle Cricket Bats Built for Confidence

Designed for players who know what they want from their game, our Grade 3 Short Handle English Willow Cricket Bat is made for cricketers who are serious about performance but still want outstanding value. Weighing 2lb 11oz but picking up closer to 2lb 9oz, this bat feels beautifully balanced in the hands, allowing you to react quicker, time your shots better, and dominate the crease with ease.

The large sweet spot, full-length bow and incredible ping make it perfect for players who want that match-winning edge. Whether you're stepping out for league cricket or club fixtures, this bat gives you confidence from the first ball. Ideal for those looking to buy a bat that performs above its price.

Precision Design Meets Functional Performance

Each of our Grade 3 English Willow bats features a full-length bow, lovely straight grains, and a powerful profile that helps you find the boundary more often. It may be classified as Grade 3, but the performance speaks for itself: excellent ping, generous edges, and a shape that encourages crisp shot-making across the wicket.

Designed to balance weight and pick-up perfectly, this short handle option gives you the freedom to play both attacking and defensive positions with complete control. Built to last for multiple seasons or more, this is the ideal purchase for players seeking quality without compromise.

A Versatile Option for the Committed Cricketer

With a pick-up lighter than its weight, this bat suits all-around stroke makers who want that extra edge in timing without sacrificing power. It's a great option if you're shopping for a dependable match bat or upgrading your training gear with something that feels premium without the premium price tag. It also makes a thoughtful gift for the passionate cricketer in your life, especially if they're building their kit or starting the season with renewed focus.

The Trogon Cricket Difference

At Trogon Cricket, every bat is handmade in our Sussex workshop using traditional bat-making tools and methods. We never outsource. Each piece of English willow is carefully selected for its quality and potential, and every cricket bat, ranging from Grade 1 to Grade 3, is meticulously shaped, pressed, and finished with care.

We’ve helped hundreds of players across the UK and beyond find their perfect cricket bat, and our customers return season after season because they know they’re getting something genuine.

Our Grade 3 bats may be priced affordably, but they’re never "cheap" in terms of feel or finish. Built to perform, built to last, and always built with love for the game.
