Cricket Bat Size Guide
cricket bats....cricketers and all top coaches agree with suppliers and manufacturers that choosing the correct size bat is vital for the proper technical development of young cricketers. It is important that the bat is not too long and more importantly not too heavy to hinder correct stroke play and good technique. Junior bats are scaled down in size and weight to meet this important requirement. | bat size | approx age | height of batsman | bat length | bat width |
1 | 4-5 | to 4'.3" | 25 1/4" | 3 1/2" | |
2 | 6-7 | 4'.3" - 4'.6" | 27 3/4" | 3 1/2" | |
3 | 8 | 4'.6"-4'.9" | 28 3/4" | 3 3/4" | |
4 | 9-11 | 4'.9"-4'.11" | 29 3/4" | 3 3/4" | |
5 | 10-12 | 4'.11"-5'.2" | 30 3/4" | 4" | |
6 | 12-14 | 5'.2"-5'.6" | 31 3/4" | 4" | |
Harrow | 15+ | 5'.6"-5'.9" | 32 3/4" | 4 1/6" | |
Full SH | 15+ | 5'.9"-6'.2" | 33 1/2" | 4 1/6" | |
Full LH | 15+ | over 6'.2" | 34 3/8" | 4 1/6" |

Cricket Helmet Size Guide
...... a good fitting helmet is worn with the peak protruding horizontally from the line of the eyebrows. It should feel firm but comfortable with no excessive movement in any direction. To measure, run a tape measure around the middle of the forehead, just above the eyebrows, around the side - just above the ears to the ‘bump’ on the back of the head. Over time the internal padding will mould to the shape of the head. | Size of helmet | To fit head circumference | Typical Age |
Small Boys | 51 - 52cm | 6 - 8 | |
Boys | 53 - 54cm | 9 - 11 | |
Youths | 55 - 56cm | 12 - 15 | |
Mens | 56cm and above | 15+ |
