Thirsk is an area they appear to have covered. It will certainly be exciting to see how their juniors can progress over the coming years. In order to help ensure that these players enjoy a smooth transition into the senior game Thirsk also run additional sides. This allows them to gain experience of adult level cricket even if they are not yet considered ready for first team action which can be an important step in the development process. Another benefit of having extra teams is that it allows the first XI to benefit from far greater strength in depth. If they are ever left short on numbers through injury or work commitments they have the option of calling players up with a limited amount of disruption. Yorkshire hospitality in Thursk, the heart of North Yorkshire Thirsk CC is a great example of a club that is playing an important role in their local community by providing people of all ages with an opportunity to enjoy cricket.
