Welcome to Big Hitters

Big Hitters is passionate about contributing to the growth of cricket in New Zealand.  We started in 2016 with 60 children and now coach approximately 250 each week across the Canterbury region in the summer months.    

We are focused on achieving three outcomes: 

1. Engaging more children at an early age in the game (pre-schoolers)
2. Increasing junior participation 
3. Developing the skills of teams/individuals

Here's how we do it:
