Junior Cricket in Tamworth – What’s New for 2025?
Why the Change?
For many years, primary schools in Tamworth coordinated cricket carnivals and seasonal competitions. But as of this year, the responsibility for managing junior cricket has officially moved to local cricket clubs. This change means clubs will now oversee:
Team registrations
Game scheduling
Coaching and development
Player support and parent communication
At NTCC, we’ve stepped up to provide a welcoming, supportive, and fun environment for young players of all skill levels.
Introducing the Junior Redbacks
As one of Tamworth’s most established clubs – with nearly 100 years of cricketing tradition – we’re proud to launch Junior Redbacks.
Our junior program focuses on:
Building confidence and skills, not just wins
Providing a safe, inclusive environment for school aged kids
Qualified coaches who are passionate about youth development
School holiday clinics to sharpen skills in a relaxed, fun setting
Pathways to senior teams for those who want to keep progressing
Whether your child has never picked up a bat, or they’re already keen on cricket, they’ll feel right at home in the Redbacks family.
What Makes Redbacks Different?
We believe junior sport should be about more than just competition. At Redbacks, we focus on:
Teamwork and sportsmanship
Community involvement
Player wellbeing and enjoyment
And yes – we also have some of the best club BBQs in town.
