The Cricketer has published its Schools Guide 2021, featuring the top 20 all-girls schools in a bumper 148-page supplement. All entries to the Guide were judged against an extensive set of criteria, which included a compelling commitment to cricket in the curriculum, facilities, fixture programmes and coaching. The Cricketer gathered entries and compiled the leading lists, working alongside former England star Lydia Greenway to select the inaugural top 20 all-girls schools. Loughborough High School are delighted to announce that they have been included in the list.

“We are absolutely delighted that Loughborough High School has been identified in the top 20 schools in the country for girls cricket. We are so excited about the programme that we have in place and were disappointed not be able to share this last summer. We cannot wait however to get all of our girls playing next year. This is the first time that there has been a girls cricket shortlist and we are thrilled to be included. This demonstrates the strength that we have in our cricket staff, our facilities and in no doubt in the coming terms, our teams.”
