About
Our courses take place at The Totteridge Academy, Barnet Lane, Totteridge N20 8AZ (See map below). The school is situated in a 29 acre countryside site within easy reach of High Barnet and Totteridge tube stations & the 251 bus along Totteridge Lane. It is clearly visible in Barnet Lane and has easy and ample parking for visitors.
We are now in our 21st year providing cricket coaching courses to kids for 10 weeks per year (3 Half Terms, 2 at Easter, and 5 in the Summer). We have averaged nearly 50 children per course (many courses are sold out) and have a strict ratio of coaches to children (approximately 1 coach per ‘team’, though of course there is plenty of individual coaching too). Peter and his coaching team feel very fortunate that, over the years, the numbers attending the courses have allowed us to always successfully cater for cricketers of all standards, whether a budding County player or complete beginner.
With extensive Indoor & Outdoor facilities, The Totteridge Academy is an ideal base for cricket. The huge sports field is perfect for outdoor matches & practice – 3 matches can safely be played at any one time with the hard or soft balls. The cricket square, comprising 5 individual wickets, are marked out on 4 different pitch lengths so that kids of all ages can play matches on grass. Other large hard court areas provide a firm true surface also on which to play. If the weather turns really nasty, we simply pick up the stumps and continue inside the superb sports hall (with 2 full size cricket nets) and the main hall.
