Details of the taster session (designed for all abilities) will be circulated widely and after that the club will start netting regularly at the Ageas Bowl. Sessions are open to all who have paid their subs. Subs are £100. This pays for all winter training and coaching, travel for all SUCC training and matches, entry into indoor and outdoor BUCs leagues, access to St Cross Symondians CC training facilities and a qualified coach for pre season week, umpires to officiate all matches and training equipment provided by the club, so certainly represents good value for money.

The club has two training squads through the winter - imaginatively named Squad 1 and Squad 2.
Squad 1 is made up of players we believe will be making up the majority of the 1st and 2nd XIs in the summer term, whilst Squad 2 is made up primarily of 3rd and 4th XI players. These are only training squads, however, and there is movement between the squads throughout the winter and being in Squad 2 wont stop you from playing for the 1s or 2s in the summer if your performances are strong. The 2013 1st XI captain Ed Nichols and 2017 and 2018 1st XI regular Charlie "Ned" Dale started their SUCC career in Squad 2 as have many other 1s and 2s stalwarts so don't be put off.
The aim of these squads is to give players a chance to net at the Ageas Bowl with people of similar ability so that all get more out of the session.
