| Under 13's Cricket |
| The Woodhouse Grange under 13's cricketers take part in the York and District Junior Cricket Association league. As the former under 14's they were managed by the extremely modest Fred Mason, a great player in his day - a prolific wicket-taker for Woodhouse Grange and now a life member of the club - he still trundles out for the fourth team. Recently Fred has been blessed by some exceptional young talents that he has received from Mick Langton's under 11's. This has resulted in a league winning team in 1998 (at then Under 14 level), who beat York C.C. in the championship final. The teams' after that have followed on playing consistent cricket in an area where youth development seems to be top of the list in order of priority after first elevens. |

| Now with our restructured junior section, the extremely enthusiatic Marcus Smith has taken over the management of the Under 13's from Fred Mason who has moved up to the Under 15's team. Along with the experience of his assistants, Phil Mellor and David Aked, the first batch of competetive Woodhouse juniors should receive good coaching and maintain a standard set by this club in recent seasons. We must thank Marcus for taking on this role as it adds a little bit of youthful panache to our experienced junior coaching team, a different angle to our recent approach. |
