The best thing to do is to take a look at the cricket clubs within your surrounding area and see if they have a website. You can check this by going here [link removed] the search facility on the left hand side. This will give you a listing of your local clubs and from there you can check to see the age limits of the Colts sections. Most will have a colts section that starts at around 9 years of age. You can also check to see if these clubs are "Club Marked" or are "ECB Focus Clubs" This means they are verified by the ECB as having a reputable coaching program and follow youth policy guidelines for Cricket.

I'm not sure why the link was removed on my last post but search for the ECB Play cricket website..
