Church Eaton Knights: A New Era Begins!

⚔️ United in Colours, Stronger as Knights! ⚔️

Church Eaton Cricket Club Launches 'Church Eaton Knights' Pathway and New Coloured Kits!

Church Eaton Cricket Club is excited to announce a major step forward in our development with the launch of the Church Eaton Knights – a new identity for all junior teams, as well as our senior T20 and 100-ball teams.

What is the 'Church Eaton Knights' Pathway?

To create a stronger link between our junior and senior cricket teams, we have introduced the Church Eaton Knights branding. This initiative will:

Provide all junior teams with a coloured kit and a distinct identity.

Extend the Knights badge to our senior T20 and 100-ball teams, aligning them with the junior pathway.

Continue using our traditional club crest for senior league cricket and whites, preserving the heritage of Church Eaton Cricket Club.

This exciting change gives our juniors a sense of belonging and pride, while also making the transition to senior cricket more seamless. The 'Knights' identity is bold, modern, and inspiring—helping us attract and retain young talent at the club.

Free Kits for Junior Players – Thanks to Our Sponsors!

We are incredibly grateful to our sponsors, whose generous support has allowed us to provide free coloured kits to all junior members signed up for the 2025 season!
A huge thank you to:

  • Kitchen Care Stafford
  • Sy Comms
  • Cannock CID
  • Commercial Arb Training

Their sponsorship has made it possible for every junior player to proudly wear their new Knights kit at no cost, ensuring accessibility for all. Senior players in the T20 and 100-ball formats will need to purchase their match tops, keeping the pathway sustainable.

The Benefits of Coloured Kits in Junior Cricket

The introduction of coloured kits in junior cricket brings multiple benefits:

More Appealing to Young Players – Modern, vibrant kits create excitement and a stronger identity, encouraging more juniors to take up the sport.

Better Visibility – Coloured kits stand out more on the field, making it easier for players to spot their teammates.

Creating a Team Culture – A unified look fosters a sense of belonging and pride, helping teams bond and play with confidence.

Stronger Connection to Senior Cricket – Aligning junior and senior formats makes it easier for young players to transition into adult teams, keeping them engaged for the long term.

Custom Kit Designed & Manufactured by Harlequin Teamwear

A special thank you to Harlequin Teamwear in Stafford for their outstanding work in designing and manufacturing our custom Church Eaton Knights kits. Their expertise and support have helped bring this vision to life, ensuring our players look and feel their best on the field.

Get Ready for the 2025 Season!

With our new pathway, free junior kits, and a refreshed identity, Church Eaton Cricket Club is more ready than ever to inspire the next generation of cricketers. We can’t wait to see our junior and senior Knights in action this season!
