Alpha Gen 1.0 Academy Junior Cricket Bat
Alpha Gen 1.0 Academy Junior Cricket Bat
If you are looking to buy your child a first bat, or they are moving on from soft ball to hard ball for the first time, why not consider an Alpha 1.0 Academy Junior Bat.
With the same shape as the full size adult bats, the Alpha Academy benefits from a mid-high middle which packs a serious punch.
This middle position and balance point of the bat gives the Alpha a wonderful pick-up, allowing junior players to generate quick hand speed.
The design is bold and powerful, everything you might expect from a cricket bat named Alpha. Black, chrome and white stickers build towards the middle of the bat, giving an already imposing piece of willow yet more to strike fear into the hearts of bowlers with.
Weighing between 1lb10 and 2lb1oz, the Alpha is lightweight yet powerful, perfect for their first forays into hard ball cricket.

Cricket Bat Size Guide

Cricket Bat Size Guide
When selecting a cricket bat, it's crucial that you pick one that is the correct size for the player. If it's too small or too big, batting will be uncomfortable and performance will be compromised.
Bat size is based on the height of the player. Take a look at our handy Size Guide to see which bat size you should choose.
Note - even batsmen over 6ft tend to use SH with no issue.
SH = Short Handle
LH = Long Handle
LB = Long Blade
SM = Small Men's
