From memory when we were 7-9 we played kanga cricket with the plastic bats, balls, stumps etc. where you couldn't get out. From memory that was a pretty good way of learning to play the game. Also two pitches would go on at once which meant you were never sitting around watching your team mates bat. Ideal for that age group.
We then graduated to "average" cricket which had similar rules except the teams would take turns to bat and you graduated to more real equipment.
Only come age 12-13 did we ever approach something like a proper game of cricket and I don't think it did any harm.

Yep school cricket was for little fellas, then U13s was the first you could play real matches. My dad who played a reasonable level of cricket himself was even sceptical of me playing at 12 years of age.

I'm not across the reasoning behind the break away. Are they just unhappy at how the competition is run? Who is in charge of South Central these days?
