We have a thriving junior section at Carlton, under the guidance of John Boyd and Peter Wooden. The success of our junior section is shown by the number of children introduced to the game and by the number of Carlton juniors who have progressed into the senior Carlton teams and into district and national sides at both junior and senior levels. The club runs junior sides at Under 11, under 13 and under 15 levels. Junior members must be under 18 on 1st September of the preceding year.
If you would like any further details about the junior section at Carlton, please contact John Boyd on 0131 258 3090 or email juniors@carltoncc.co.uk. Our Sponsors

Carlton has been a driving force in the development of junior cricket in the East of Scotland in recent years. Indeed, a commitment to junior cricket is now a pre-requisite for membership of the Scottish National Cricket League, with member clubs required to participate in the TOPClub scheme, providing coaching and matches to develop junior cricketers - the life-blood of the game in Scotland in the decades to come. Carlton 's age-group sides (Under 10, Under 11, Under 13 and Under 15) have all achieved success. However, equally important is the role of introducing children to cricket, ensuring they enjoy the game and benefit from quality instruction from Carlton 's qualified coaching team. 
The fruits of this policy can be seen in a number of ways; the success that the junior teams have enjoyed, the promotion of so many Carlton juniors to district and national age-group sides and the successful integration of the 'older' junior members into the club's adult sides.
