The SYA Travel Cricket program is focused on helping boys and girls ages 7-14 develop skills in batting, bowling, and fielding while fostering a love for the sport. Travel cricket is meant for more experienced players who will participate in tournaments with the Maryland Youth Cricket Association (MYCA) and the Virginia Youth Cricket Association (VYCA). Players compete using a vinyl ball in the U11 Group and a seasoned leather ball in the U12 and U14 groups.
