Training days for the 2026 season have now concluded. Dates for the 2027 season will be announced in due course.

Interested players must have completed the above Expression of Interest Form before attending training sessions. Interested players do not need to be able to attend all sessions.

Training will take place at the Devon Cricket Centre, located at the University of Exeter Sports Park, EX4 4QN.

Training sessions will use a softball, so no hardball equipment is necessary. Bats will be provided, though players are more than welcome to bring their own.

Sessions will be run by our Disability Cricket Officer, Chris Brown.

Who can play?

The Devon County Disability Team provides competitive opportunities for cricketers aged 12 and above with physical disabilities, learning disabilities, deafness or hearing loss.

Both our softball and hardball teams cricket provide players with the chance of experiencing competitive cricket in a friendly environment.

Although some players will play at their local cricket club, for many, this is their opportunity to play competitive cricket.

Our softball pairs play with an incrediball (a softer ball). Players will train together, developing their skills and vying to secure their place in one of the summer playing squads.

Players who wish to play will be required to complete a player registration form, though this is not necessary for the training days above.
