Cricket Hong Kong, China and the Caravel Foundation are thrilled to announce the schedule for the upcoming Caravel Foundation Junior All Stars Series 2024, to be played from the 29th March to 5th April 2024!
The Caravel Foundation has been supporting Cricket Hong Kong, China’s youth pathway programmes since 2021. It aims to provide young players an opportunity to equip and develop skill sets, paving a path to nurture local youngsters to become a representative international cricketer by fulfilling their potential in different age stages.
In this year’s All Stars Series, the best U13 and U16 talents in Hong Kong will be divided in three teams: Hong Kong Islanders, Kowloon Lions, and New Territories Tigers. Each team will compete against each other in a single-round robin stage, followed by a final in their respective formats. The U13 will play in a 40-overs series while the U16 will play in a One Day format of 50-overs cricket.
“The Caravel Foundation Junior All Stars Series will be a great opportunity for the young players to showcase their ability” said Mark Farmer, Youth Pathway Coach of Cricket Hong Kong, China. “By competing against each other in the age group, myself and other coaches will be able to spot some potential talents and prepare them for the Hong Kong, China youth team.”
Angad Banga from the Caravel Foundation had this to say, “We have been supporting Cricket Hong Kong, China Youth Pathway Programs for three years and we are delighted to see the development of the players! The U19 team had just been promoted to the ICC Asia Division 1 Qualifier after reaching the Final last month and this shows that there is a lot of talent in Hong Kong to be nurtured.”
The Caravel Foundation Junior All Stars Series will be livestreamed on Cricket Hong Kong, China YouTube Channel. Fans are also welcome to join us to support our future generation at the ground!
