Cricket shouldn't depend on what a family can pay.

Club fees, kit and travel add up fast, and a lot of Calgary kids who love the game end up watching from the boundary. Sonic removes the bill. Coaches who have worked at the top of Canadian cricket, indoor nets through the winter, and nothing to pay.

  • No feesNot to join, not per session, not for the grand opening.
  • No experience neededFirst-timers train alongside club players, in groups by level.
  • No tryoutsRegister, turn up, play. Every child who signs up gets a place while spots last.

Each session covers

  • Batting. Stance, grip, defence and the core shots, taught in nets with a coach.
  • Bowling. Pace and spin basics, run-up, and bowling at a target.
  • Fielding and catching. Reaction drills and throwing technique.
  • Match play. Short-format games so the skills click under real pressure.

What to bring

  • Indoor runners and comfortable sports clothing.
  • A water bottle. Sessions are 90 minutes and kids run a lot.
  • Your own kit if you have it. Tell us in the form if your child doesn't have gear yet.
  • A parent or guardian at drop-off and pick-up for the first session.
