• The Aldenham 1st XI competes at the highest level in a fixture list which includes the MCC. 'The Cricketer' Magazine recently noted Aldenham as one of the top Cricket schools in the country. Boys enjoy competitive cricket at all levels, from U12A & B teams all the way to the 1st XI.
• Boys benefit from a comprehensive programme of training and coaching leading to matches against other eminent opposition such as New Hall School, Stowe, Haberdashers', Haileybury, Westminster, Highgate, Mill Hill and UCS.
• In addition to dedicated full time games staff, Aldenham employs a cricket professional to ensure boys are receiving the best coaching. David Goodchild (ex Middlesex and current Herts Coach) is full-time coach and works with the elite cricketers throughout the year.
• The elite cricketers within every year group start their winter coaching in November with one to two focused sessions per week. This is continued until the season begins in April where the intensity is stepped up and they will be training or playing four times per week.
• Aldenham regularly produces pupils who play at county level and we currently have boys who represent Hertfordshire, Berkshire and Middlesex. Aldenham is registered with the Hertfordshire leagues and we nominate able players for trials with Hertfordshire CCC.
